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

Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) is an oncogene implicated in the pathophysiology of many cancers. Increasing evidence shows that KRAS mutation is correlated with poor prognosis in numerous cancers, including colorectal cancer (CRC), breast cancer, and melanoma. KRAS also participates in regulating the CRC microenvironment. However, the direct and indirect therapeutic targets of KRAS in CRC have not been identified; thus, elucidating the mechanisms and interactions between KRAS and the tumor microenvironment (TME) in-depth is paramount. Herein, we present some of the major roles KRAS plays in shaping the heterogeneity of the TME and propose a potential strategy for targeting the downstream components of the KRAS signaling pathway and the TME in CRC.
