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 worldwide health issue. It causes illness and death in millions of people each year. A positive correlation has been observed between the intake of dietary fat and the development of CRC. The composition of gut microbiota exhibits a significant correlation with pathophysiologic processes in intestine. Clinical treatment remains inadequate due to the complex pathogenic mechanisms of CRC triggered by a high-fat diet (HFD). Naringenin, a flavonoid from grapefruit, has anti-cancer activity. Our findings suggest that naringenin enhances gut microbiota diversity by increasing the abundance of beneficial bacterial species while reducing opportunistic pathogenic bacteria. The fecal microbiota transplantation assay (FMT) demonstrated that the anti-HFD-CRC activity of naringenin depended on the gut microbiota. Furthermore, naringenin antagonized the IL-6/STAT3 pathway. These results suggest that naringenin may be a potential treatment for HFD-CRC.
