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) is a significant problem with worldwide public health consequences. One key factor in the genesis and progression of CRC is the aberrant upregulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Inhibitors designed to target β-catenin directly have not been effective in clinical trials, whereas miRNAs have been shown to regulate post-transcriptional components of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Microorganisms in the gut also produce miRNAs that regulate CRC-related genes at the post-transcriptional level, including those involved in the Wnt pathway. An example is
