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 focuses on the significant role between gut microbiota and lymph node metastasis (LNM) in colorectal cancer (CRC). By conducting 16S rRNA sequencing on fecal samples from 147 CRC patients and combining it with the linear discriminant analysis effect size algorithm, we successfully identified significant differences in the gut microbiota between patients with LNM and those with no lymph node metastasis (NLNM). Furthermore, using transcriptome data from 23 CRC patients, we constructed an immune cell infiltration matrix to deeply explore the biological functions associated with LNM. Eventually, using the characteristics of the gut microbiota associated with LNM, we developed random forest (RF) and multilayer perceptron (MLP) machine learning models to predict the LNM status of CRC patients. We identified 21 differentially abundant gut microbes between the two groups, among which
