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) develops within a mucosal ecosystem in which epithelial barrier function, colonizing microbes, inflammatory signaling, and immune cell composition are closely interdependent. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have significantly altered treatment outcomes in patients with mismatch repair-deficient or microsatellite instability-high (dMMR/MSI-H) CRC, but most microsatellite-stable (MSS) tumors still respond poorly, and this is not solely due to lower antigenicity. This article explains this gap mechanistically: gut microbiota dysbiosis weakens the mucosal barrier, promotes microbial translocation, amplifies cytokine and eicosanoid signaling, and remodels the tumor microenvironment into an immunosuppressive state dominated by myeloid cells. We focus on
