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

Bile acids (BAs) are cholesterol derivatives synthesized in the liver and then secreted into the intestine for lipid absorption. There are numerous scientific reports describing BAs, especially secondary BAs, as strong carcinogens or promoters of colon cancers. Firstly, BAs act as strong stimulators of colorectal cancer (CRC) initiation by damaging colonic epithelial cells, and inducing reactive oxygen species production, genomic destabilization, apoptosis resistance, and cancer stem cells-like formation. Consequently, BAs promote CRC progression
