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 a common malignant tumor of the digestive tract. Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide (GLP) has shown significant potential in regulating macrophage polarization and treating CRC. However, the role of mitochondrial regulation in GLP-mediated macrophage polarization in azoxymethane/dextran sulfate sodium (AOM/DSS)-induced colitis-associated CRC remains unclear. Therefore, we performed cellular and animal experiments to explore how GLP influences mitochondrial dynamics and function, macrophage polarization, and exerts its therapeutic effect against AOM/DSS-induced colitis-associated CRC. The results showed that Mdivi-1 attenuated GLP-induced changes in mitochondrial dynamics and function, further reduced the M1/M2 macrophage ratio. In vivo experiments confirmed that GLP modulates mitochondrial function, promotes M1 macrophage polarization, and thereby inhibits CRC progression without significant side effects. This study provides new insights into the role of mitochondrial modulation in GLP-mediated macrophage polarization and suggests a potential therapeutic avenue for colitis-associated CRC treatment.
