Soluble B7-H3 in Colorectal Cancer.
Article in Bulletin of experimental biology and medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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 present the results of comparative ELISA of the concentration of soluble form of immunity checkpoint B7-H3 (sB7-H3) in the serum of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) at different stages before treatment and healthy control donors. The analysis revealed a statistically significant difference between the median levels of sB7-H3 in the blood serum of CRC patients (19.66 ng/ml) and healthy donors (16.76 ng/ml) (p=0.0025). ROC analysis showed 62.9% sensitivity and 56.7% specificity for CRC patients (cut-off 17.62 ng/ml; p=0.0028). An association of sB7-H3 levels with tumor progression was revealed. We demonstrated that sB7-H3 levels were significantly lower in patients with regional metastases than in patients without metastases (p=0.039) and that sB7-H3 concentration tends to decrease at the late stages of the disease. Thus, high serum level of sB7-H3 in CRC patients can be a favorable prognostic factor in future.
