Influence of NSAID Use Among Colorectal Cancer Survivors on Cancer Outcomes.
Article in American journal of clinical oncology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
purposeColorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer diagnosed in men and women in the United States. Given the availability of effective screening, most tumors are found early enough to offer patients substantial long-term survival. Thus there is a resulting significant population of CRC survivors for whom modifiable risk factors for recurrence and survival would be of interest.
methodsWe conducted a population-based retrospective cohort study among patients enrolled in 2 large Midwestern health plans for which claims data, including pharmacy fill data, and medical record data were available. Men and women who were 40 years of age or older at the time of CRC diagnosis with disease less than stage IV and no history of Crohn disease, ulcerative colitis, and irritable bowel syndrome were included. CRC cases diagnosed between January 1, 1990 and December 31, 2000 were included if they met the inclusion criteria. Adjusted Cox proportional hazard models were used with exposure modeled as a time-dependent covariate. We assessed progression-free survival, defined as an aggressive polyp or invasive disease, and overall survival.
resultsAfter adjustment for age at diagnosis, sex, race, body mass index, stage, side of initial tumor, and tumor histology, we found that current users of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs had a 3-fold decreased risk of recurrence and a >7-fold decreased risk of death. Our results are statistically significant with P-values <0.05.
conclusionsOur results suggest that current use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs provides significant improvements in CRC outcomes.
