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.
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 is one of the most common and lethal malignancies, and various factors have been confirmed to contribute to its occurrence. However, the causal role of immune cell-specific changes in the development of colorectal cancer has not been investigated. The bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis was performed to explore the association between 731 types of immune cell phenotypes-specific changes and colorectal cancer. The inverse variance weighting results indicated that a total of 31 and 28 immune cell phenotypes significantly associated with colorectal cancer in two different datasets, respectively. The primary results of inverse variance weighting Mendelian randomization suggested that the immune cell phenotypes BAFF-R on IgD+ CD38dim (OR = 1.033, 95%CI: 1.005-1.062) and SSC-A on monocyte (OR = 1.055, 95%CI: 1.016-1.096) served as risk factor for colorectal cancer. In addition, the meta-analysis further supports the causal link of BAFF-R on IgD+ CD38dim (pooled OR = 1.035, 95%CI: 1.013-1.059) and SSC-A on monocyte (pooled OR = 1.060, 95%CI: 1.026-1.095) with colorectal cancer. Finally, the inverse variance weighting Mendelian randomization result suggested that genetic determinants of colorectal cancer may decrease the level of HLA DR++ monocyte absolute count (OR = 0.686, 95%CI: 0.508-0.925). Our results indicated that the potential causal association of BAFF-R on IgD+ CD38dim and SSC-A on monocyte with colorectal cancer. The identified immune cells may be appealing drug targets for colorectal cancer, but lack confirmation from real clinical evidence. Further studies are needed to investigate the roles of these immune cells in colorectal cancer.
