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

Objectives: To examine whether habitual whole-grain intake is associated with lower patient-reported systemic inflammatory distress among ambulatory survivors of esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma (ESCC). Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional questionnaire study (May 2023-July 2025) at four tertiary hospitals in Shanxi Province among adults with stage I-IIIA ESCC (n = 392). A validated semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire quantified five whole-grain categories. Exposures were modeled as grams/day Results: Median whole-grain intake was 35.4 g/day Conclusion: In Shanxi ESCC survivorship care, higher whole-grain intake-particularly ~50 g/day
