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

Purpose: The purpose of the current study was to determine whether there is a difference between high levels of microsatellite instability (MSI-H) and microsatellite stability (MSS) in DNA mismatch repair-deficient (DMMR) colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. Methods: A total of 452 CRC patients with DMMR from December, 2014, to April, 2021, in our hospital were selected retrospectively. However, only 105 patients underwent Sanger or next-generation-sequencing (NGS) to confirm their microsatellite status. Ultimately, 55 MSI-H patients and 20 MSS patients with intact medical record information were included in this study. Results: The MSS group was associated with a higher mutation rate in the KRAS gene ( Conclusion: The MSI-H status was associated with colon cancer and a lower mutation rate of the KRAS gene in DMMR patients. In CRC-DMMR patients, the MSS group exhibited better OS and DFS than the MSI-H group, although these differences were not statistically significant. Accordingly, in clinical practice, we should not confuse these two types of patients.
