Complete Spontaneous Regression of Colorectal Cancer: A Report of Two Cases.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Spontaneous regression of cancer is rare, and rarer still in colorectal cancer. We present a report of two cases of spontaneous regression of histologically proven proximal colonic cancers described in detail, alongside endoscopic, histological, and radiological images. We discussed the potential mechanisms by reviewing previous literature.
