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

backgroundPatients with tumors often develop multiple autoantibodies against tumor-associated antigens. Among these, antinuclear antibodies (ANAs) constitute a clinically important group distributed across the nucleus, cytoplasm, and cytoskeleton. Emerging evidence suggests that ANAs are closely associated with the development and progression of various malignancies, including colorectal cancer (CRC).

aimTo detect ANA fluorescence patterns in CRC using indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) and investigate their correlation with the disease.

methodsWe collected serum samples from patients and healthy controls visiting The Affiliated Panyu Central Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University between May 2023 and March 2024 for analysis. The study included 38 patients with newly diagnosed CRC, 43 patients with colorectal polyps (CRP), and 29 healthy controls. Serum ANA expression was assessed by IIF, and fluorescence patterns were recorded for each group. Differences in ANA titers were compared among each group to analyze the differences in serum ANA-positive expression, which were further analyzed to explore the correlation between ANA expression and CRC screening.

resultsANA positivity rates were 50.00% in the CRC group, 46.51% in the colorectal polyp group, and 6.90% in the healthy control group, with significantly higher rates in the two patient groups compared to the control group (

conclusionANAs are associated with both CRP and CRC and may be useful in early CRC screening. Medium-to-high ANA titers, in particular, should prompt further evaluation for possible CRC correlation. Multiple ANA fluorescence patterns can be detected across all groups, with patients with CRP and CRC showing greater pattern diversity than healthy controls.
