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

Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers such as colorectal cancer (CRC), gastric cancer (GC), esophageal cancer (EG), pancreatic duct adenocarcinoma (PDAC) or hepatocellular cancer (HCC) belong to the most commonly diagnosed types of cancer and are among the most frequent causes of cancer related death worldwide. Most types of GI cancer develop in a stepwise fashion with the occurrence of various driver mutations during tumor progression. Understanding the precise function of mutations driving GI cancer development has been regarded as a prerequisite for an improved clinical management of GI malignancies. During recent years, CRISPR/Cas9 has developed into a powerful tool for genome editing in cancer research by knocking in and knocking out even multiple genes at the same time. Within this review, we discuss recent applications for CRISPR/Cas9-based genome editing in GI cancer research including CRC, GC, EG, PDAC and HCC. These applications include functional studies of candidate genes in cancer cell lines or organoids
