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

backgroundColorectal cancer, a prevalent gastrointestinal carcinoma, has a high risk for recurrence when locally advanced and remains lethal when in an advanced stage. Prognostic biomarkers may help in better delineating the aggressiveness of this disease in individual patients and help to tailor appropriate therapies. CDX2, a transcription factor of gastrointestinal differentiation, has been proposed as a biomarker for good outcomes and could also be a marker of specific sub-types amenable to targeted therapies.

methodsColorectal cancers from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) colorectal cohort and colon cancers from the Sidra-LUMC AC-ICAM cohort were categorized according to their expressions of CDX2 mRNA. Groups with CDX2 suppression were compared with cancers showing no suppression regarding their clinical and genomic characteristics.

resultsCDX2-suppressed colorectal cancers showed a high prevalence of Microsatellite Instability (MSI) and a lower prevalence of chromosomal Instability (CIN) compared to non-CDX2-suppressed cancers. In addition, CDX2-suppressed cancers had a higher prevalence of mutations in several receptor tyrosine kinase genes, including

conclusionCDX2-suppressed colorectal cancers constitute a genomically distinct subset of colon and rectal cancers that have a lower prevalence of
