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
Etoposide is a second-line chemotherapy agent widely used for metastatic colorectal cancer. However, we discovered that etoposide treatment induced greater motility potential in four colorectal cancer cell lines. Therefore, we used microarrays to test the mRNA of these cancer cell lines to investigate the mechanisms of etoposide promoting colorectal cancer metastasis. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by comparing the gene expression profiles in samples from etoposide-treated cells and untreated cells in all four colorectal cancer cell lines. Next, these genes went through the Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA), Gene Ontology (GO) and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) Pathway analysis. Among the top 10 genes including the upregulated and downregulated, eight genes had close interaction according to the STRING database: FAS, HMMR, JUN, LMNB1, MLL3, PLK2, STAG1 and TBL1X. After etoposide treatment, the cell cycle, metabolism-related and senescence signaling pathways in the colorectal cancer cell lines were significantly downregulated, whereas necroptosis and oncogene pathways were significantly upregulated. We suggest that the differentially expressed genes LMNB1 and JUN are potential targets for predicting colorectal cancer metastasis. These results provide clinical guidance in chemotherapy, and offer direction for further research in the mechanism of colorectal cancer metastasis.
