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

The absence of established predictive markers with value to anticipate response to neoadjuvant 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-based chemoradiotherapy (CRT) represents a current major challenge in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). The tumor suppressor microRNA (miR)-199b has been reported to play a key role determining 5-FU sensitivity of colorectal cancer cells through the regulation of several signaling pathways, and has emerged as a novel molecular target to overcome the 5-FU resistant phenotype. Moreover, miR-199b downregulation was described as a common alteration that predicts lack of response to preoperative CRT in LARC but this issue needs to be confirmed in independent larger cohorts. Here, we evaluate the clinical impact of miR-199b in LARC and perform additional analyses to further clarify its potential relevance as novel marker in this disease. Thus, miR-199b expression was quantified by real-time-PCR in a cohort of 185 LARC patients, observing this miR downregulated in 22.2% of cases and significantly associated with higher tumor size (
