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

Despite advances in screening and prevention strategies, colorectal cancer (CRC) remains the second-leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States. Given this continued public health burden of CRC, there is a clear need for improved disease prevention. CRC initiates and progresses over decades, canonically proceeding via a series of stepwise molecular events that turn a normal epithelium into a dysfunctional epithelium, then subsequently into an adenoma, and finally an invasive adenocarcinoma. An emerging paradigm suggests that guanylyl cyclase C (GUCY2C) functions as a tumor suppressor in the intestine, and that the loss of hormone ligands for this receptor causes epithelial dysfunction and represents an important step in the disease process. In that context, GUCY2C ligand replacement therapy has been proposed as a strategy to prevent colorectal cancer, a translational opportunity that is underscored by the recent regulatory approval of the oral GUCY2C ligand linaclotide (Linzess™, Forest Laboratories and Ironwood Pharmaceuticals, Inc.).
