Snail inhibits metastasis via regulation of E‑cadherin and is associated with prognosis 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
The overall survival (OS) rate of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) remains low due to the lack of clear prognostic markers. Therefore, the identification of valuable prognostic markers is urgently required. Snail and E-Cadherin (E-Cad) are important protein molecules in the EMT process and play a crucial role in tumor invasion and metastasis. The present study investigated the clinical significance of Snail and E-cad expression in CRC. Compared with those in adjacent tissue, the expression levels of Snail and E-cad were significantly increased and decreased, respectively, in CRC. Moreover, low Snail and high E-cad expression were associated with clinicopathological features and longer OS time. Furthermore, Snail and E-cad could predict the prognosis of patients with CRC. Reverse transcription-qPCR, Western blotting, Wound scratch assay, High content cell migration experiment, which showed that low Snail or high E-cad expression inhibited invasion and metastasis of CRC. In conclusion, Snail can promote CRC invasion and metastasis by regulating E-cad. Snail and E-cad expression constitute a novel prognostic marker for CRC, and the present study revealed a greater combined effect of Snail and E-cad as effective prognostic markers in CRC for the first time.
