Genetic and nongenetic mechanisms for colorectal cancer evolution.
Review in Cancer science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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 stepwise accumulation of key driver mutations is responsible for the development and malignant progression of colorectal cancer in primary sites. Genetic mouse model studies have revealed combinations of driver gene mutations that induce phenotypic changes in tumors toward malignancy. However, cancer evolution is regulated by not only genetic alterations but also nongenetic mechanisms. For example, certain populations of metastatic cancer cells show a loss of malignant characteristics even after the accumulation of driver mutations, and such cells are eliminated in a negative selection manner. Furthermore, a polyclonal metastasis model has recently been proposed, in which cell clusters consisting of genetically heterogeneous cells break off from the primary site, disseminate to distant organs, and develop into heterogenous metastatic tumors. Such nongenetic mechanisms for malignant progression have been elucidated using genetically engineered mouse models as well as organoid transplantation experiments. In this review article, we discuss the role of genetic alterations in the malignant progression of primary intestinal tumors and nongenetic mechanisms for negative selection and polyclonal metastasis, which we learned from model studies.
