The Influence of the Microbiome on Metastatic Colorectal Cancer.
Review in Clinics in colon and rectal surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The microbiome (bacteria, viruses, and fungi) that exist within a patient's gastrointestinal tract and throughout their body have been increasingly understood to play a critical role in a variety of disease, including a number of cancer histologies. These microbial colonies are reflective of a patient's overall health state, their exposome, and germline genetics. In the case of colorectal adenocarcinoma, significant progress has been made in understanding the mechanism the microbiome plays beyond mere associations in both disease initiation and progression. Importantly, this improved understanding holds the potential to further identify the role these microbes play in colorectal cancer. We hope this improved understanding will be able to be leveraged in the future through either biomarkers or next-generation therapeutics to augment contemporary treatment algorithms through the manipulation of a patient's microbiome-whether through diet, antibiotics, prebiotics, or novel therapeutics. Here we review the role of the microbiome in the setting of patients with stage IV colorectal adenocarcinoma in both the development and progression or disease as well as response to therapeutics.
