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

Inhibitor of β-catenin and T-cell factor (ICAT) was first found as a polypeptide that blocks β-catenin-TCF interaction. Abundant evidence has shown that ICAT has different functions in diverse cancers' progression. Nevertheless, the roles it plays in colorectal cancer (CRC) have not been described. Here, we documented that ICAT expression was higher in CRC tissue than in the adjacent normal tissue and that prognosis was better in high-ICAT expression patients. The overexpression of ICAT inhibited CRC cell proliferation both in vitro and in vivo. Wnt pathway transcriptional activity was suppressed in the CRC cells with ICAT overexpression, where the
