Emerging role of bile acids in colorectal liver metastasis: From molecular mechanism to clinical significance (Review).
Review in International journal of oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
Liver metastasis is the leading cause of colorectal cancer (CRC)‑related mortality. Microbiota dysbiosis serves a role in the pathogenesis of colorectal liver metastases. Bile acids (BAs), cholesterol metabolites synthesized by intestinal bacteria, contribute to the metastatic cascade of CRC, encompassing colorectal invasion, migration, angiogenesis, anoikis resistance and the establishment of a hepatic pre‑metastatic niche. BAs impact inflammation and modulate the immune landscape within the tumor microenvironment by activating signaling pathways, which are used by tumor cells to facilitate metastasis. Given the widespread distribution of BA‑activated receptors in both tumor and immune cells, strategies aimed at restoring BA homeostasis and blocking metastasis‑associated signaling are of importance in cancer therapy. The present study summarizes the specific role of BAs in each step of colorectal liver metastasis, elucidating the association between BA and CRC progression to highlight the potential of BAs as predictive biomarkers for colorectal liver metastasis and their therapeutic potential in developing novel treatment strategies.
