DOG1 overexpression is associated with mismatch repair deficiency and BRAF mutations but unrelated to cancer progression in colorectal cancer.

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
introductionThe transmembrane channel protein DOG1 (Discovered on GIST1) is normally expressed in the gastrointestinal interstitial cells of Cajal and also in gastrointestinal stroma tumors arising from these cells. However, there is also evidence for a relevant role of DOG1 expression in colorectal cancers. This study was undertaken to search for associations between DOG1 expression and colon cancer phenotype and key molecular alterations.
methodsA tissue microarray containing samples from more than 1,800 colorectal cancer patients was analyzed by immunohistochemistry.
resultsDOG1 immunostaining was detected in 503 (30.2%) of 1,666 analyzable colorectal cancers and considered weak in 360 (21.6%), moderate in 78 (4.7%), and strong in 65 (3.9%). Strong DOG1 immunostaining was associated with advanced pT stage (p=0.0367) and nodal metastases (p=0.0145) but these associations were not retained in subgroups of 1,135 mismatch repair proficient and 86 mismatch repair deficient tumors. DOG1 positivity was significantly linked to several molecular tumor features including mismatch repair deficiency (p=0.0034), BRAF mutations (p<0.0001), nuclear p53 accumulation (p=0.0157), and PD-L1 expression (p=0.0199) but unrelated to KRAS mutations and the density of tumor infiltrating CD8 positive lymphocytes.
conclusionElevated DOG1 expression is frequent in colorectal cancer and significantly linked to important molecular alterations. However, DOG1 overexpression is largely unrelated to histopathological parameters of cancer aggressiveness and may thus not serve as a prognostic parameter for this tumor entity.
