Colorectal cancer: epidemiology, risk factors, and health services.
Article in Clinics in colon and rectal surgery, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 79 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 carcinoma is the third most common cancer in the United States in both men and women but still remains the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths. The risk of developing colorectal cancer increases with age. Additional risk factors include family history of colorectal cancer, heredity conditions such as polyposis and hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, and personal history of inflammatory bowel disease, polyps, and cancers. Health services is a new scientific discipline that examines the quality of care, often at the population level, and may examine parts or the entire spectrum of care.
