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

A 79-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because numerous polyps were found in her stomach and large intestine at an ambulatory clinic. Although there were no characteristic symptoms or signs of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome (CCS), endoscopic and pathological findings indicated CCS. Moreover, colonoscopy showed two polypoid lesions (Is type), which appeared neoplastic by magnifying observation with image-enhanced endoscopy (IEE), in the ascending colon. Histologically, the resected specimens revealed tubular adenomas arising in the CCS inflammatory polyps. Remarkable remission of the polyps and edematous mucosa in the stomach and colon was seen after 8 months of administration of salazosulfapyridine (SASP) (3 g/day). Another adenoma was detected and removed endoscopically in the sigmoid colon. This is the first report to describe an asymptomatic case of CCS probably detected in the early phase of the disease, by magnifying IEE which enabled detection and treatment for associated colonic adenomas. SASP was effective in eradication of the inflammatory polyposis, and an additional adenoma was successfully found and removed by surveillance colonoscopy thereafter.
