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

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth most common and the third mostly deadly cancer globally. Even with alternative therapies, some patients do not respond to treatment. Identifying modulations in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of CRC is a significant challenge due to the complex and dynamic nature of the TME. The intestinal epithelium comprises different types of secretory lineage cells, including goblet, tuft, Paneth, and enteroendocrine cells (EECs). Yet the relevance of each subtype of secretory intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) within the TME is still debated. This study investigated the involvement of IECs in CRC development through an integrative bioinformatics analysis. We used publicly available datasets from the National Center for Biotechnology Information, the Cancer Genome Atlas Program, and the National Cancer Institute's Proteomics Tumor Analysis Consortium, encompassing both human and mouse CRC samples. Our findings reveal a CRC microenvironment characterized by elevated expression levels of genes associated with WNT pathway activity. Remarkably, there was increased expression of Paneth cell-associated markers and transcription factors, such as
