The prognostic and therapeutic potential of vimentin in colorectal cancer.
Review in Molecular biology reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Several cells and molecules in the tumor microenvironment have been introduced as effective factors in the prognosis and progression of colorectal cancer. As a key element of the intermediate filament family, vimentin is expressed by mesenchymal cells in a ubiquitous manner and contributes significantly to cellular integrity and stress resistance in colorectal cancer. Recent studies have shown that alterations in the expression patterns of intermediate filaments are significantly related to cancer progression, especially in phenotypes associated with cellular migration and invasion. In addition to its multiple biological roles, vimentin also has a substantial function in mediating the epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Therefore, evaluating vimentin as an effective factor involved in the prognosis of colorectal cancer and targeting it as a novel approach to cancer therapy have become one of the main goals of many researchers worldwide. In this article, we will review the various biological functions of vimentin, as well as its relationship with colorectal cancer with the aim of providing novel insights into its clinical importance in the prognosis and treatment of colorectal cancer.
