To study the utility of HER2 and Ki-67 as immunohistochemical prognostic markers in comparison to histopathological parameters and tumour, node and metastasis staging in colorectal carcinoma.

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
Colorectal Carcinoma (CRC) ranks among the most prevalent cancers globally, with significant variability in incidence rates across different regions. A shift towards a Westernized diet has been implicated in rising cancer rates, particularly in emerging nations. By 2020, CRC is projected to represent a notable proportion of global cancer cases and deaths. In India, CRC primarily affects individuals aged 45 to 84, with a higher incidence in males, commonly occurring in the rectum and sigmoid colon. Risk factors such as obesity, dietary factors, sedentary lifestyle, smoking, and alcohol use contribute to CRC development, especially in aging populations. Diagnosis involves various imaging modalities and histological assessments using Tumour, node and metastasis (TNM) and American Joint Committee on Cancer classifications. Recent advancements in targeted therapies like monoclonal antibodies against HER2 have shown promise in treating metastatic CRC. Immunohistochemistry markers like Ki-67 and HER2 play crucial roles in prognostic assessment and treatment planning. This study aims to investigate Ki-67 and HER2 expression in CRC, correlating with histological characteristics and prognostic factors.
