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

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common malignant neoplasm worldwide. In Poland, colorectal cancer ranks second in tumor incidence regardless of sex; moreover, there has been a steady increase in the incidence of CRC. CRC results from complex interactions between inherited susceptibility, clinical conditions and environmental/lifestyle-related risk factors such as physical inactivity, smoking, alcohol consumption, high-fat/low-fiber diet, and obesity/overweight. The activation of pathways associated with insulin resistance and insulin-like growth factors (IGF) appears to be the epidemiological link between the metabolic syndrome and the development of CRC, which is of particular importance. What is significantly associated with the pathway of IGF is ADAM12 and 28-protein, which belong to a broad family of the adamalysines. These proteins, by adjusting the bioavailability of growth factors, influence the process of carcinogenesis. The aim of this article is to analyze the role of selected adamalysines and activation of the IGF system associated with the formation of colon cancer.
