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

Amis: Chemotherapy-induced hepatotoxicity (CIH) is a significant concern in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients treated with the CAPEOX (capecitabine and oxaliplatin) regimen. Identifying predictive factors for CIH is crucial for clinical management. Patients and Methods: This study analyzed colorectal tissue (CRT), plasma, and urine samples from CRC patients. Differentially expressed metabolites (DEMs) across these tissues were integrated for multi-omics analysis, and predictive models for CIH susceptibility were developed. An independent set of 75 plasma samples was used for validation. Results: A total of 492 differentially expressed compounds were identified in samples from 63 CRC patients, including 105, 149, and 238 DEMs in CRT, plasma, and urine, respectively. Lipids and lipid-like molecules were predominant in all samples. Among these, urine samples exhibited the highest variability and provided the strongest predictive power for CIH susceptibility. Principal component analysis (PCA) effectively differentiated normal patients from those with CIH. The study revealed steatosis as the primary pathological feature of CIH, with disrupted lipid metabolism emerging as a key characteristic. Predictive models constructed from multi-tissue metabolites profile exhibited high accuracy, with the plasma model achieving an AUC of 0.933 in external validation set. Our study underscores the importance of individual metabolic variations in CIH susceptibility, reflecting the complex interplay of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Conclusion: This study emphasizes the critical role of alterations in lipid, polyamine, and purine metabolism, as well as impaired tissue repair mechanisms, were identified as key endogenous factors underlying CIH susceptibility. The developed predictive models demonstrate potential for clinical application in assessing CIH risk in CRC patients undergoing CAPEOX chemotherapy.
