Nested case-control study on the risk factors of colorectal cancer.

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.
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
aimTo investigate the risk factors of colon cancer and rectal cancer.
methodsA nested case-control study was conducted in a cohort of 64 693 subjects who participated in a colorectal cancer screening program from 1989 to 1998 in Jiashan county, Zhejiang, China. 196 cases of colorectal cancer were detected from 1990 to 1998 as the case group and 980 non-colorectal cancer subjects, matched with factors of age, gender, resident location, were randomly selected from the 64 693 cohort as controls. By using univariate analysis and multivariate conditional logistic regression analysis, the odds ratio (OR) and its 95 % confidence interval (95 %CI) were calculated between colorectal cancer and personal habits, dietary factors, as well as intestinal related symptoms.
resultsThe multivariate analysis results showed that after matched with age, sex and resident location, mucous blood stool history and mixed sources of drinking water were closely associated with colon cancer and rectal cancer, OR values for the mucous blood stool history were 3.508 (95 %CI: 1.370-8.985) and 2.139 (95 %CI: 1.040-4.402) respectively; for the mixed drinking water sources, 2.387 (95 %CI: 1.243-4.587) and 1.951 (95 %CI: 1.086-3.506) respectively. All reached the significant level with a P-value less than 0.05.
conclusionThe study suggested that mucous blood stool history and mixed sources of drinking water were the risk factors of colon cancer and rectal cancer. There was no any significant association between dietary habits and the incidence of colorectal cancer.
