The role of folate receptor-positive circulating tumor cell analysis in the diagnosis of colorectal cancer: a retrospective cohort study.
Article in International journal of clinical oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveTo explore the application value of folate receptor-positive circulating tumor cell analysis (FR
methodsClinical data of CRC patients and healthy subjects admitted to our hospital from January 2019 to October 2019 were retrospectively collected. CTC result and serological and pathological outcomes of the study patients were collected and analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn.
resultsThe CTC levels of cancer patients (9.34 ± 3.53 FU/3 ml) were significantly higher than those of healthy subjects (7.00 ± 2.33 FU/3 ml). CTC levels could be related to cancer stage and metastasis in patients. ROC curves were drawn and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.702. The cutoff value was determined to be 8.87 FU/3 ml. At this cutoff value, the sensitivity and specificity of FR
