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

backgroundMucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC) is frequently reported to be associated with patients of young-age sporadic colorectal cancer (YSCC) and hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). This study is aimed to investigate whether the clinicopathological characteristics of MAC of HNPCC patients are distinct from those of YSCC patients. PATIENTS AND

methodsEighty-two HNPCC and 68 YSCC patients recorded in the colorectal cancer registry of Chang Gung Memorial Hospital at Linkou, Taiwan, between January 1, 1995 and December 31, 2001 were included in this study. Clinicopathological and molecular variables of MAC and non-MAC of HNPCC and YSCC patients were compared accordingly.

resultsCompared to non-MAC, MAC significantly showed higher frequencies of poor differentiation (32% vs. 8.2%, p = 0.001), advanced tumor stage (76% vs. 47%, p = 0.002), loss of mismatch repair protein (MMR) expression (74% vs. 44%, p = 0.023), and increased MUC2 expression (98% vs. 61%, p < 0.001). MAC of HNPCC patients showed predominant right-sided colon involvement, whereas MAC of YSCC patients displayed predominance in the left colon (79% vs. 22%, p = 0.001). Among the non-MAC counterparts, more differences were detectable including tumor stage, loss of MMR expression, and increased MUC1 expression. Furthermore, both MAC and non-MAC of YSCC patients showed higher frequencies of advanced tumor stage (81% vs. 62%, p = 0.072). In contrast, the incidence of loss of MMR expression in MAC and non-MAC of HNPCC patients is not significantly different (86% vs. 70%, p = 0.323).

conclusionsSignificantly different tumor localization was observed between mucinous YSCC (left colon predominance) and mucinous HNPCC (right colon predominance).
