1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) has been often the main reason for dying worldwide. Many factors are implicated in the progress of colorectal carcinoma, one of the chiefs of which is DNA methylation. Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3 ( Materials and Methods: A whole of 80 specimens containing 40 stool specimens from CRC patients and 40 specimens from healthy individuals as a control group was investigated. DNA was extracted using the bisulfate method and methylation of the candidate genes was assessed using methylation-sensitive high-resolution melting method. Differences in the methylation levels between CRC patients and controls were assessed by statistical analysis. Results: Our study showed significant hypomethylation in both IGFBP3 and TWIST1 promoters in patients' samples compared with normal individuals and notably the promoter hypomethylation found in these genes appeared to occur simultaneously ( Conclusion: Our results propose that the
