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
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide. Chemotherapy is the mainstay of treatment for patients with CRC in II-IV stages. Resistance to chemotherapy occurs commonly, which results in treatment failure. Therefore, the identification of novel functional biomarkers is essential for recognizing high-risk patients, predicting recurrence, and developing new therapeutic strategies. Herein, we assessed the roles of KIAA1549 in promoting tumor development and chemoresistance in colorectal cancer. As a result, we found that KIAA1549 expression is up-regulation in CRC. Public databases revealed a progressive up-regulation of KIAA1549 expression from adenomas to carcinomas. Functional characterization uncovered that KIAA1549 promotes tumor malignant phenotypes and boosts the chemoresistance of CRC cells in an ERCC2-dependent manner. Inhibition of KIAA1549 and ERCC2 effectively enhanced the sensitivity to chemotherapeutic drugs oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil. Our findings suggest that endogenous KIAA1549 might function as a tumor development-promoting role and trigger chemoresistance in colorectal cancer partly by upregulating DNA repair protein ERCC2. Hence, KIAA1549 could be an effective therapeutic target for CRC and inhibition of KIAA1549 combined with chemotherapy might be a potential therapeutic strategy in the future.
