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

This study aims to explore changes in peripheral blood T-lymphocyte subsets in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients before and after acupoint catgut embedding (ACE) acupuncture observation. Eighty CRC surgical patients who visited from April 2017 to May 2022 were selected as study samples using the convenience sampling method. Patients were randomly divided into a control group (
