Correlation Between Serum and Tissue SIRT1 Levels in Patients With Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

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
Background/Aim: Identifying prognostic and molecular markers as therapeutic targets for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) could enhance the efficacy of multidisciplinary treatments. While tissue expression of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) has been linked to tumor progression in ESCC, prognostic significance of serum SIRT1 levels and their correlation with tissue SIRT1 remains unexplored. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between serum and tissue SIRT1 levels in patients with ESCC. Patients and Methods: A total of 38 patients diagnosed with ESCC who were untreated preoperatively were recruited for this study. SIRT1 expression in the surgical specimens was assessed through immunostaining, while serum SIRT1 levels were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. We analyzed the association between tissue and serum SIRT1 levels, clinicopathological features, and patient prognosis. Results: Positive SIRT1 expression in tissue was significantly associated with deeper tumor depth (p=0.020). It was also significantly associated with poorer overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) (p=0.041 and p=0.012, respectively). Elevated serum SIRT1 levels were significantly correlated with increased tumor depth and weight loss (p=0.012 and p=0.030). While higher serum SIRT1 levels tended to be associated with poorer OS (p=0.069), no significant correlation was found between SIRT1 expression in tissue and its concentration in serum. Conclusion: SIRT1 tissue expression may be a valuable prognostic marker in ESCC. However, the clinical significance of serum SIRT1 levels appears to differ from that of its tissue expression. Future research is required to clarify the role of serum SIRT1 in ESCC.
