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 one of the most common malignancies worldwide. Via analysis using The Cancer Genome Atlas database, the present study identified 1,835 genes that were differentially expressed in CRC, including 811 upregulated and 1,024 downregulated genes. Enrichment analyses using the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery tool revealed that these differentially expressed genes were associated with the regulation of CRC progression by modulating multiple pathways, such as 'Cell Cycle, Mitotic', 'DNA Replication', 'Mitotic M-M/G1 phases' and 'ATM pathway'. To identify the key genes in CRC, protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis was performed and the hub modules in upregulated and downregulated PPI networks were identified. Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 T (UBE2T), a member of the E2 family, was identified to be a key regulator in CRC. To the best of our knowledge, the present study was the first to demonstrate that UBE2T expression was upregulated in CRC samples compared with normal tissues. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that higher expression levels of UBE2T were associated with worse prognosis compared with lower UBE2T expression levels in CRC. Additionally, the present study demonstrated that knockdown of UBE2T inhibited CRC cell proliferation. Flow cytometry assays revealed that UBE2T knockdown induced cell cycle arrest at G
