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

Molecular changes have a substantial impact on the onset of colorectal cancer (CRC). Complexes of HOTAIR and miRNAs disrupt several cellular functions during carcinogenesis, primarily by disrupting several carcinogenic signaling pathways. In the present study, the relationships between the serum levels of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) and E-cadherin and those of HOX transcript antisense intergenic RNA (HOTAIR) and microRNA-130a (miR-130a) in individuals with CRC were analyzed, including their correlations and diagnostic potential. Patients with colon cancer and healthy volunteers were enrolled in the study. Blood samples were collected from 70 patients with CRC and 30 age-matched healthy control volunteers and reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to determine the serum levels of HOTAIR and miR-130a. In addition, the levels of TGF-β1, SIRT1 and E-cadherin were determined utilizing enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Patients with CRC were found to have significantly higher TGF-β1, SIRT1, HOTAIR and miR-130a serum levels than those of healthy participants. In addition, patients with high-grade CRC had significantly higher levels of TGF-β1, SIRT1, HOTAIR and miR-130a compared with those of patients with low-grade CRC. A significant reduction in the serum levels of E-cadherin was observed in participants with CRC compared with healthy participants, but no significant difference was detected according to the grade of CRC. Positive correlations were found between HOTAIR and miR-130a, as well as TGF-β1 and SIRT1. By contrast, negative correlations were noted between E-cadherin and HOTAIR, miR-130a, TGF-β1 and SIRT1. Therefore, it may be concluded that the miR-130a/HOTAIR and TGF-β1/SIRT1/E-cadherin axes may serve as novel biomarkers for the early diagnosis of CRC.
