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

backgroundThe number of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) in China has increased in the past 10 years. Thus, it is anticipated that the incidence of UC-associated colorectal cancer (UC-CRC) will also increase. However, the risk of CRC in UC patients is still unknown in Chinese. The aim of this study was to identify the risk and risk factors of UC-CRC in Chinese.

methodsA total of 3,922 patients with UC were retrospectively collected from five central teaching hospitals in China, in which high-quality endoscopic and histological diagnoses were available from 1998 to 2009. The database of the UC and UC-associated CRC patients was evaluated.

resultsCRC was diagnosed 34 in patients, and the overall prevalence of CRC in patients with UC was 0.87%. The cumulative risk of developing CRC after a disease duration of 10 years was 1.15% (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.71-1.84%); 20 years, 3.56% (95% CI 2.14-5.89%); and 30 years, 14.36% (95% CI 7.57-26.3%). Longer disease duration, extensive colitis, and dysplasia found in the biopsy specimen were identified as risk factors for developing CRC. 5-ASA use was identified as a protective factor of UC-CRC.

conclusionsThe period prevalence of CRC was lower than that reported from the West. However, the cumulative risk was found to be comparable to that of Western countries, which suggests that the period prevalence of UC-CRC in China may be growing in the future.
