SLC12A8 upregulation promotes colorectal cancer progression and chemoresistance.

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
Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC), a prevalent gastrointestinal malignant disease, causes substantial morbidity and mortality. Identification of novel prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets is critically needed to improve patient outcomes. Although solute carrier family 12 member 8 (SLC12A8) has high expression in various tumors and affects tumor progression, its role in CRC remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the functions of SLC12A8 in CRC. Methods: SLC12A8 expression and its association with clinical significance in CRC patients were explored via multiple public databases, including The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx), The Human Protein Atlas (HPA), The University of ALabama at Birmingham CANcer data analysis Portal (UALCAN), and Kaplan-Meier plotter. The effects of SLC12A8 on the CRC cell apoptosis, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and sensitivity to oxaliplatin were verified by Results: SLC12A8 expression was upregulated in CRC tissues compared with normal colorectal tissues. Furthermore, high expression of SLC12A8 was associated with poorer prognosis in CRC patients. Pathway enrichment analyses revealed SLC12A8 involvement in oxidative stress and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) signaling. Experiments in CRC cells showed that SLC12A8 upregulation promoted apoptosis resistance, EMT, and inhibited ROS production. Moreover, SLC12A8 knockdown enhanced the sensitivity of CRC cells to oxaliplatin chemotherapy. Conclusions: Our integrative analyses identify SLC12A8 as a candidate biomarker for CRC progression. Targeting SLC12A8 may improve patient responses to oxaliplatin-based treatment regimens.
