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

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an autoimmune condition with an increasing incidence worldwide, which manifests in two pathological forms: Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC). Both cause chronic inflammation of the digestive tract, although they can present different locations and with different symptoms. To date, the pathogenesis of IBD remains unclear. One of the major complications of these diseases is colorectal cancer. Several studies have reported a correlation between chronic intestinal inflammation and an increased risk of malignancy. Persistent inflammation damages the intestinal mucosa and epithelial wall, altering gut permeability and the local microenvironment. Moreover, the heightened activity of the immune system leads to an increased production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS), increasing the risk of DNA mutation and cell transformation. In addition, some current therapies used to treat IBD and induce remission may contribute to carcinogenesis or impair immune surveillance due to their immunosuppressive activity. The management of cancer risk for IBD patients remains a challenge, and existing screening methods are often invasive (endoscopies, biopsies), resulting in low patient compliance. To address this unmet clinical need, researchers have started using proteomics to identify novel biomarkers that could predict cancer risk in IBD patients in a non-invasive manner. This review aims to examine the current state of knowledge regarding the correlation between IBD and cancer, with a special focus on the biomarkers discovered through proteomic approaches, and their potential application in routine clinical screening. In our view, proteomics represents a powerful and rapidly evolving strategy for biomarker discovery, with the potential to complement or even replace invasive procedures. Its future clinical impact will rely on translating current research advances into robust and accessible diagnostic tools.
