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

objectiveTo analyze the correlation of Th17/Treg associated transcription factors (TFs) with clinicopathological features of colorectal cancer (CRC) and their prognostic significance.

methodsThis research enrolled 56 CRC patients (experimental group, EG) and 50 healthy controls (control group, CG), who presented to Deqing People's Hospital between June 2017 and January 2019. The levels of Th17, Treg and their TFs [forkhead box protein P3 (Foxp3), retinoid acid receptor-related orphan receptor gamma t (RORγt)] and secreted inflammatory factors (IFs) [interleukin-17 (IL-17), interleukin-22 (IL-22)] were detected in the peripheral blood (PB) of both groups, and the TFs' phosphorylated protein expression was observed by Western blot. Further, the correlation of TFs with patients' pathological features was analyzed. Finally, a 3-year prognostic follow-up was performed on CRC patients. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) determined the predictive value of Th17/Treg on the prognostic mortality of patients.

resultsPeripheral blood Th17 and Treg showed higher levels in the EG than in the CG, demonstrating excellent diagnostic effects on CRC (

conclusionTh17/Treg associated TFs are of great significance for the prognosis evaluation of CRC, the imbalance of which can cause aggravation of the inflammatory reaction and promote malignancy of CRC.
