Differences in the expression of CMTM3 and SSTR2 genes in right and left colon tumors: A molecular insight into colorectal cancer.

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
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a prevalent and lethal malignancy influenced by genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors, with diverse molecular subtypes and varying incidence rates across different populations. The anatomical, histological, morphological, and genetic differences between the right and left colons contribute to disparities in tumor incidence, clinical presentation, prognosis, and therapeutic responses, depending on the tumor's localization. We aimed to investigate the expression patterns of the CMTM3 and SSTR2 genes both of which are hypermethylated and potentially involved in the development and progression of colorectal tumors in tumors originating from the right and left colon. The study consisted of 89 histopathologically diagnosed tumour tissue samples, 42 from the right colon and 47 from the left colon, and 89 healthy tissue samples from the same individuals adjacent to the tumour tissue. The expression of the CMTM3 and SSTR2 genes was analysed using the comparative CT (ΔΔCT) method in real-time PCR. Our findings demonstrated a significant upregulation of CMTM3 and SSTR2 expression in tumor tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues (p < 0.05). Notably, CMTM3 expression was significantly higher in left-sided colon tumors (2
