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

Oncoprotein Y-box-binding protein-1 (YB-1) is involved in all cancer hallmarks. One of the most studied post-translational modifications of YB-1 is phosphorylation on Serine 102 (S102), which is involved in cancer progression. KRAS mutations are frequent, have been associated with poor prognosis and therapy resistance, and they are considered a major stimulator of S102 YB-1 in vitro. In this study, a relationship between S102 YB-1 phosphorylation in subcellular fractions and KRAS mutation was investigated in CRC tissues, and its association with clinicopathological parameters was analyzed. Immunohistochemistry on 36 patient samples and 5 normal tissue samples highlighted nuclear S102 YB-1 was specific to cancer tissues. Nuclear S102 YB-1 was expressed in 47.2% of tumor tissues, which was positively correlated with KRAS mutation (P = 0.017). There was no significant association between cytoplasmic S102 YB-1 with KRAS mutation status (P = 0.391). Further studies in larger cohorts are needed to validate the observed results. The significant association between S102 YB-1 in the nucleus and KRAS mutation may suggest YB-1 as an effective target to improve survival of CRC patients with KRAS-mutated tumors.
