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

This study investigates the expression and biological role of caudal homologous transcription factor 2 (CDX2) in duodenal carcinoma. Paraffin-embedded samples from 40 duodenal carcinoma cases were analyzed using immunohistochemistry on a tissue microarray to assess CDX2 expression and its prognostic significance. CDX2 overexpression plasmids and CDX2-siRNA were transfected into colon and duodenal cancer cells. Transfection efficiency was confirmed by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Cell proliferation was assessed using CCK8 assay, migration via scratch assay, and cell cycle and apoptosis by flow cytometry. CDX2 staining was primarily nuclear, with a positive rate of 65% in duodenal carcinoma tissues, significantly lower than in adjacent non-tumor tissues (p<0.05). CDX2-positive patients had better prognoses than negative patients (p<0.05). Reduced CDX2 expression significantly enhanced the proliferation of CaCO2 and HuTu-80 cells (p<0.001), whereas CDX2 overexpression suppressed proliferation (p<0.001). CDX2 knockdown increased migration, while its overexpression reduced migration (p<0.05). CDX2 overexpression led to a significant increase in G0/G1 phase cells and a decrease in S phase cells (p<0.05), whereas knockdown reduced G0/G1 phase cells and increased S and G2/M phase cells (p<0.05). Apoptosis was significantly increased following CDX2 overexpression (p<0.001) and decreased after CDX2 knockdown (p<0.001). CDX2 expression is downregulated or lost in duodenal carcinoma, acting as a tumor suppressor. CDX2 may serve as a crucial biomarker for predicting the onset, progression, and treatment of duodenal carcinoma.
