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 is closely related to inflammation and immune response. Radiotherapy, as a major treatment for colorectal cancer, plays a central role in cancer control. Inflammation caused by ionizing radiation can exert either anti- or pro-tumorigenic effects. Additionally, radiotherapy can elicit an anti-tumor response not only in radiation of target lesions but also in radiation of remote lesions. However, the immune mechanism underlying this effect has not been thoroughly elucidated yet. The combination therapeutic regimen of radiotherapy with other therapeutic methods, including chemotherapy and immunotherapy, has been applied in clinical practice. Meanwhile, radiation toxicity and radiosensitivity have long been problems that affect a patient's quality of life and morbidity. Researchers have found that the abovementioned problems are closely associated with gut microbiota. Here we discuss the impact of immune response induced by radiotherapy on tumor regression and the impact of intestinal flora on the consequent clinical efficacy.
