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

backgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer globally, causing over 900000 deaths annually. Risk factors include aging, diet, obesity, sedentary lifestyle, tobacco use, genetic predisposition, and inflammatory bowel disease. Despite current treatments, survival rates for advanced CRC remain low, highlighting the need for better therapeutic strategies.

aimTo evaluate both the clinical significance and the pathological implications of the Kinesin family member 14 (KIF14) expression within CRC specimens. Additionally, this study aims to investigate the interaction between nitidine chloride (NC) and KIF14, considering their potential as therapeutic targets.

methodsThe expression of the KIF14 protein in CRC was analyzed using immunohistochemical staining. The integration of multicenter high-throughput data facilitated the calculation of the standardized mean difference (SMD) for

resultsKIF14 was highly expressed in 208 CRC patients. Data from 17 platforms involving 2436 CRC samples and 1320 noncancerous colorectal tissue controls indicated that
