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

BACKGROUND/

aimsColorectal cancer (CRC) ranks third among malignancies in terms of global incidence and has a poor prognosis. The identification of effective diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers is critical for CRC treatment. This study intends to explore novel genes associated with CRC progression via bioinformatics analysis. MATERIALS AND

methodsDataset GSE184093 was selected from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between CRC and noncancerous specimens. Functional enrichment analyses were implemented for probing the biological functions of DEGs. Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis and Kaplan-Meier plotter databases were employed for gene expression detection and survival analysis, respectively. Western blotting and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction were employed for detecting molecular protein and messenger RNA levels, respectively. Flow cytometry, Transwell, and CCK-8 assays were utilized for examining the effects of GBA2 and ST3GAL5 on CRC cell behaviors.

resultsThere were 6464 DEGs identified, comprising 3005 downregulated DEGs (dDEGs) and 3459 upregulated DEGs (uDEGs). Six dDEGs were significantly associated with the prognoses of CRC patients, including PLCE1, PTGS1, AMT, ST8SIA1, ST3GAL5, and GBA2. Upregulating ST3GAL5 or GBA2 repressed the malignant behaviors of CRC cells.

conclusionWe identified 6 genes related to CRC progression, which could improve the disease prognosis and treatment.
