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
Several studies had been conducted on the association between blood group ABO and the risk of gastrointestinal malignancies, such as gastric and pancreatic cancer. Studies have also been conducted on the risk of obesity with colorectal carcinoma (CRC). It is unclear whether there is an association between blood group ABO and CRC and which group is more affected. Aim: The aim of this study was to show an association between the ABO blood group, Rh factor, and obesity with CRC. Patients and Methods: One hundred and two patients with CRC were included in our case-control study. Blood group, Rh factor, and BMI were estimated and compared with a control group of 180 Iraqis who came to the Endoscopy Department of Al-Kindy Teaching Hospital for preoperative control colonoscopy between January 2016 and January 2019. Results: The overall distributions of ABO and Rh factor were comparable between patients (41.17% A+, 5.88% A-, 6.86% B+, 2.94 B-, 1.96% AB+, 1.96% AB-, 37.25% O+, and 1.96% O-) and controls (26.66% A+, 1.11% A-, 20% B+, 1.11 B-, 13.3% AB+, 1.11% AB-, 34.44% O+, and 2.22% O-). Statistically, there were significant differences between patients with CRC and control subjects in terms of their blood groups. The A+ group was found in 42 cases (41.17%), followed by O+ in 38 cases (37.25%). Their BMI ranged from 18.5 to 40 kg/m Conclusion: In this study, a statistically significant association was found between the occurrence of CRC and patients with blood group A+, O+, overweight, and obesity class І.
