Clinical and genomic characteristics of metabolic syndrome in colorectal cancer.
Article in Aging, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is characterized by a group of metabolic disturbances which leads to the enhanced risk of cancer development. Elucidating the mechanisms between these two pathologies is essential to identify the potential therapeutic molecular targets for colorectal cancer (CRC). 716 colorectal patients from the First and Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were involved in our study and metabolic disorders were proven to increase the risk of CRC. The prognostic value of the MetS factors was analyzed using the Cox regression model and a clinical MetS-based nomogram was established. Then by using multi-omics techniques, the distinct molecular mechanism of MetS genes in CRC was firstly systematically characterized. Strikingly, MetS genes were found to be highly correlated with the effectiveness of targeted chemotherapy administration, especially for mTOR and VEGFR pathways. Our results further demonstrated that overexpression of MetS core gene IL6 would promote the malignancy of CRC, which was highly dependent on mTOR-S6K signaling. In conclusion, we comprehensively explored the clinical value and molecular mechanism of MetS in the progression of CRC, which may serve as a candidate option for cancer management and therapy in the future.
