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

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a commonly fatal cancer and ranks as the fourth most prevalent in men and third in women worldwide. While early-stage survival rates are high, they significantly decrease with recurrence and metastasis. Thus, the early detection and treatment of metastasis-related factors can significantly improve survival rates. In this study, the transmembrane 7 superfamily member 2 (TM7SF2) gene was validated as a biomarker for predicting metastasis in CRC. Immunohistochemical staining was performed on 236 CRC tissues, and the clinicopathological factors of patients with CRC were analyzed. This evaluation revealed that TM7SF2 expression is associated with the clinical stage. Kaplan-Meier analysis confirmed the relationship between the survival rate of CRC patients and TM7SF2 expression, showing a decrease in survival rate with TM7SF2 overexpression (log-rank,
