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 study aimed to develop a quantitative colorimetric loop-mediated isothermal amplification technique using the phenol red indicator (QLAMP-PhR) for detecting Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn) levels in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and healthy individuals. QLAMP-PhR assays were conducted on 251 stool samples specific for the Fn FadA gene. Six primers were synthesized and utilized with master mix reagents, and a phenol red indicator was employed to enhance the QLAMP-PhR technique. A standard quantitative analysis curve was generated using a logarithmic function (absorbance vs. concentration) by serially diluting the copy number of genomic DNA templates (Fn ATCC25586). The CRC group exhibited a significantly higher abundance of Fn compared to the healthy control group (P < 0.001). These findings suggest that the QLAMP-PhR technique effectively identifies Fn specifically by its gene for the key virulence factor FadA. Additionally, ideas for developing a real-time QLAMP-PhR test were presented. Compared to the traditional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, QLAMP-PhR offers several advantages including rapidity, simplicity, specificity, sensitivity, and cost-effectiveness method that can quantitatively screen for Fn presence in normal populations. The QLAMP-PhR method represents a sensitive and specific amplification assay for the rapid detection of the Fn pathogen. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to report the application of QLAMP-PhR for detecting FadA in Fn.
