High Expression of MRE11A Is Associated with Shorter Survival and a Higher Risk of Death in CRC Patients.
Article in Genes, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundHomologous recombination repair (HR) is the most accurate repair pathway for double-strand breaks and replication fork disruption that is capable of faithfully restoring the original nucleotide sequence of the broken DNA. The deficiency of this mechanism is a frequent event in tumorigenesis. Therapies that exploit defects in HR have been explored essentially in breast, ovarian, pancreatic, and prostate cancers, but poorly in colorectal cancers (CRC), although CRC ranks second in mortality worldwide.
methodsTumor specimens and matched healthy tissues from 63 patients with CRC were assessed for gene expression of key HR components and mismatch repair (MMR) status, which correlated with clinicopathological features, progression-free survival, and overall survival (OS).
resultsEnhanced expression of MRE11 homolog (
conclusionMonitoring of MRE11 expression could be used both as a predictor of outcome and as a marker to select CRC patients for treatments thus far adapted for HR-deficient cancers.
