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

Excessive mucus secretion is the most prominent feature of pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP), which often leads to significant increase in abdominal circumference, intractable abdominal pain, progressive intestinal obstruction, abdominal organ adhesions, and cachexia. Excessive mucus secretion is also the main cause of death. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is the recommended treatment for PMP. However, recurrence is frequently observed even after CRS and HIPEC, presenting similar clinical manifestations. Mucin 2 (MUC2) is the main type of mucin in PMP and plays a key role in the progressive sclerosis of mucus. To comprehensively demonstrate the biosynthetic process and molecular features of MUC2 and to provide new directions for the development of PMP mucolytic strategies, this review systematically summarizes the molecular biology of MUC2, including
