Bcl-2 and p53 immunophenotypes in colorectal adenocarcinoma in type 2 diabetes mellitus versus non-diabetic patients.

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.
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
We aimed to investigate immunohistochemical expression of the p53 tumor suppressor protein, and the B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) apoptotic protein in colorectal adenocarcinoma patients with or without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Tissue sections from 95 paraffin-embedded colorectal adenocarcinomas, originating from 52 T2DM and 43 non-diabetic patients, were immunostained for p53 [Ventana mouse monoclonal primary antibody (mAb) in vitro diagnostic (IVD) anti-p53, clone Bp53-11] and Bcl-2 (Ventana mAb IVD anti-Bcl-2, clone Bcl-2/124). Immunohistochemistry analysis did not find statistically significant differences between the two groups, but analysis on subgroups of patients in terms of presence or absence of obesity identified overexpression of p53 (>70% of cells) in the T2DM obese patients compared to non-diabetics. Overexpression of p53 was present in 80% of tumor cells coming from T2DM obese patients compared to 37.2% of tumor cells coming from non-diabetics obese and non-obese, and in 36.6% of tumor cells coming from non-diabetic non-obese patients (p=0.024). There was a single non-diabetic obese patient with p53 overexpression. Most cancer cells of T2DM obese patients presented more frequently p53 overexpression by comparison with cancer cells of the T2DM non-obese patients (80% vs 40.5%, p=0.028). Bcl-2/p53 co-expression was an infrequent event in T2DM patients' group. The results of this study suggest that patients with colorectal adenocarcinoma that associate T2DM and obesity exhibit higher p53 protein expression in malignant cells. In conclusion, our research highlights that obesity is a potential key factor in the relationship between T2DM and colorectal cancer.
