Physical exercise as a potential adjuvant therapy: effects on inflammation and nutrition in colorectal cancer patients-a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Review in Frontiers in nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Introduction: This meta-analysis aimed to reveal the effects of exercise training on markers of inflammation and indicators of nutrition in colorectal cancer patients. Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and Web of Knowledge for randomized controlled trials (published between 1 January 1945 and 17 June 2024). Our main outcomes were nutritional status and markers of inflammation analyzed using a random-effects model. Results: Of the 3,081 identified studies, 15 were eligible and were included in our analysis ( Conclusion: Overall, these findings suggest that physical exercise may improve inflammation status and enhance weight loss in CRC patients. Systematic review registration: Number CRD 42024536976.
