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

backgroundThe aim of this study is to determine which types of microorganisms influence the onset and development of colorectal cancer (CRC) in humans.

methodsIn patients with CRC, three swabs were taken for microbiological analysis during surgical removal of the cancer: the first swab from the surface of the healthy intestinal mucosa, the second from the surface of the tumor, and the third from the middle of the tumor tissue.

resultsIn the healthy mucosa of the colon, the most prevalent microorganism was

conclusionCertain types of bacteria can influence the emergence and development of cancer, while other types can suppress the development of tumor tissue. Microbiological analysis of human stool samples can prevent the development of CRC.
