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

backgroundThis study aimed to investigate the validity of pathological diagnosis of early CRC (E-CRC) from the genetic background by comparing data of E-CRC to colorectal adenoma (CRA) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) on advanced CRC (AD-CRC).

methodsTCGA data on AD-CRC were studied in silico, whereas by next-generation sequencer, DNA target sequences were performed for endoscopically obtained CRA and E-CRC samples. Immunohistochemical staining of mismatch repair genes and methylation of MLH1 was also performed. The presence of oncogenic mutation according to OncoKB for the genes of the Wnt, MAPK, and cell-cycle-signaling pathways was compared among CRA, E-CRC, and AD-CRC.

resultsThe study included 22 CRA and 30 E-CRC lesions from the Chiba University Hospital and 212 AD-CRC lesions from TCGA data. Regarding the number of lesions with driver mutations in the Wnt and cell-cycle-signaling pathways, E-CRC was comparable to AD-CRC, but was significantly greater than CRA. CRA had significantly more lesions with a driver mutation for the Wnt signaling pathway only, versus E-CRC.

conclusionsIn conclusion, the definition of E-CRC according to the Japanese criteria had a different genetic profile from CRA and was more similar to AD-CRC. Based on the main pathway, it seemed reasonable to classify E-CRC as adenocarcinoma. The pathological diagnosis of E-CRC according to Japanese definition seemed to be valid from a genetic point of view.
