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

Gastrointestinal (GI) tumors represent a significant global health burden and are among the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide. their drug resistance is one of the major challenges in cancer therapy. In recent years, epigenetic modifications, especially N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modifications, have become a hot research topic. m6A modification plays an important role in gene expression and cancer progression by regulating RNA splicing, translation, stability, and degradation, which are regulated by "writers," "erasers" and "readers." In GI tumors, resistance to chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy is closely associated with m6A RNA modification. Therefore, the molecular mechanism of m6A modification and its targeted drug development provide new therapeutic strategies for overcoming drug resistance and therapeutic efficacy in GI tumors. In this review, the biological functions of m6A were explored, the specific resistance mechanisms of m6A in different types of GI tumors were explored, new ideas and targets for future treatment resistance were identified, and the limitations of this field were highlighted.
