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

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignant tumors of the digestive tract and a leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Since many CRC patients are diagnosed already in the advanced stage, and traditional chemoradiotherapy is prone to drug resistance, it is important to find new therapeutic targets. In this study, the expression levels of ALDOA and p-AKT were detected in cancer tissues and paired normal tissues, and it was found that they were significantly increased in CRC tissues, and their high expression indicated poor prognosis. Moreover, a positive correlation between the expression of ALDOA and p-AKT was found in CRC tissues and paired normal tissues. In addition, the Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the group with both negative of ALDOA/p-AKT expression had longer five-year survival rates compared with the other group. Besides, the group with both high expression of ALDOA/p-AKT had a worse prognosis compared with the other group. Based on the expression of ALDOA and p-AKT in tumor tissues, we can effectively distinguish tumor tissues from normal tissues through cluster analysis. Furthermore, we constructed nomograms to predict 3-year and 5-year overall survival, showing that the expression of ALDOA/p-AKT plays a crucial role in predicting the prognosis of CRC patients. Therefore, ALDOA/p-AKT may act as a crucial role in CRC, which may provide new horizons for targeted therapies for CRC.
