1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: Treatment options for metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) are mostly ineffective. We present new evidence that tumor tissue collagen type X alpha 1 (COL10A1) is a relevant candidate biomarker to improve this dilemma. Methods: Several public databases had been screened to observe COL10A1 expression in transcriptome levels with cell lines and tissues. Protein interactions and alignment to changes in clinical parameters and immune cell invasion were performed, too. We also used algorithms to build a novel COL10A1-related immunomodulator signature. Various wet-lab experiments were conducted to quantify COL10A1 protein and transcript expression levels in disease and control cell models. Results: COL10A1 mRNA levels in tumor material is clinical and molecular prognostic, featuring upregulation compared to non-cancer tissue, increase with histomorphological malignancy grading of the tumor, elevation in tumors that invade perineural areas, or lymph node invasion. Transcriptomic alignment noted a strong positive correlation of COL10A1 with transcriptomic signature of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and populations of the immune compartment, namely, B cells and macrophages. We verified those findings in functional assays showing that COL10A1 are decreased in CRC cells compared to fibroblasts, with strongest signal in the cell supernatant of the cells. Conclusion: COL10A1 abundance in CRC tissue predicts metastatic and immunogenic properties of the disease. COL10A1 transcription may mediate tumor cell interaction with its stromal microenvironment.
