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

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the presence of three gut bacteria and their toxin-encoding genes in cancerous tissues and their adjacent healthy tissues in Iranian patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). Background: CRC is a leading gastrointestinal malignancy influenced by genetic and environmental factors. Gut microbiota dysbiosis, including overgrowth of pathogenic bacteria and loss of beneficial species, contributes to carcinogenesis through toxins, inflammation, and DNA damage. Methods: Totally, 64 biopsy samples including 22 cancerous and 22 adjacent healthy tissues from CRC patients and 20 biopsy samples from healthy controls were obtained. The presence of difficile ( Results: Totally, 19 (43.2%) toxigenic Conclusion: Our study demonstrated a significant increase in
