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 leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. Over the past three decades, extensive efforts have sought to elucidate the genomic landscape of CRC. These studies reveal that CRC is highly heterogeneous at the molecular level, with different subtypes characterised by distinct somatic mutational profiles, epigenetic aberrations and transcriptomic signatures. This review summarises our current understanding of the genomic and epigenomic alterations implicated in CRC development and progression. Particular focus is given to how characterisation of CRC genomes is leading to more personalised approaches to diagnosis and treatment.
