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

TREM2 (triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells) is involved in the development of malignancies. However, the function of TREM2 in colorectal cancer has not been clearly elucidated. Here, we investigated TREM2 function for the first time in colorectal epithelial cancer cells and demonstrated that TREM2 is a novel tumor suppressor in colorectal carcinoma. Blockade of TREM2 significantly promoted the proliferation of HT29 colorectal carcinoma cells by regulating cell cycle-related factors, such as p53 phosphorylation and p21 and cyclin D1 protein levels. HT29 cell migration was also increased by TREM2 inhibition via MMP9 (matrix metalloproteinase 9) expression upregulation. Furthermore, we found that the tumor suppressor effects of TREM2 were associated with Wnt/
