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) remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite significant advances in screening and treatment, the prognosis for advanced-stage disease continues to be poor. One thriving area of research focuses on the use of epigenetic alterations for the diagnosis, prediction of treatment response, and prognosis of CRC. In this study, we evaluated original studies and meta-analyses published within the past five years to identify the most clinically relevant epigenetic biomarkers. DNA methylation-based assays, particularly those targeting
