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) ranks as the third most common cancer globally, accounting for 10% of cases, and is the second leading cause of cancer-related death. Exercise can maintain/restore the body's internal balance at multiple levels to prevent pathologies, although its mechanism is complex and involves multiple systems. While physical activity improves colon cancer patients' quality of life and reduces discomfort, how it works remains unclear. To explore this, we constructed a rat CRC model. We performed 16S rRNA and nontargeted metabolomics sequencing and analyzed the results to screen distinct intestinal microbes and their metabolites. To clarify the links among these microbes/metabolites, intestinal barrier function, and inflammatory markers, we used qRT-PCR, immunohistochemistry, and ELISA to verify the effects of exercise intervention on intestinal barrier function and inflammatory factor expression. We also checked the expression of the PCNA gene (a proliferation index) to assess cell proliferation.
