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 cancer (CRC) has a high mortality rate, resulting from the processes of metastasis and disease recurrence. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are believed to be crucial for both processes, as they ensure the maintenance of the tumor bulk, in addition to being intrinsically resistant to conventional therapies. Thus, the present study aimed to investigate glycobiomarkers in colorectal cancer stem cell subpopulations. For this purpose, a sphere formation assay was standardized for CACO-2 and HT-29 cell lines, which were monitored through gene expression analysis of five known CSC markers (CD24, CD44, ALDH1, LGR5, and PROM1). Compared to the parental condition (2D), a reduction in CD24 expression was seen in CACO-2, while in HT-29 an increase in the expression levels of ALDH1, LGR5, and PROM1 was observed. Regarding glycogenes, eight of them (ST3GAL1, OGT, OGA, MGAT5, GFAT1, GFAT2, B4GALT1 e B3GNT2) have had their expression monitored. An increase in B3GNT2, OGT, and OGA was observed in the HT-29 sphere condition. On the other hand, no change in the glycogenes expression was observed in CACO-2. In silico correlation analyses (CSCs markers versus glycogenes) using TCGA data from colon and rectum carcinoma samples showed a weak positive correlation between LGR5 vs OGA expression regardless of the sample location. In addition, an increase in the expression of LGR5, OGA, and OGT as well as a decrease in the expression of ALDH1 were observed in colon carcinoma samples when compared to the adjacent normal tissue. Interestingly, greater OGA expression resulted in both lower overall survival of colon carcinoma patients and lower disease-free survival of rectum carcinoma patients. Therefore, our data indicates that OGA expression correlates with CSC markers and directly impacts the survival of colorectal carcinoma patients.
