Depressive symptoms in older long-term colorectal cancer survivors: a population-based analysis using the SEER-Medicare healthcare outcomes survey.
Article in Supportive care in cancer : official journal of the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
purposeColorectal cancer survivorship has improved significantly over the last 20 years; however, few studies have evaluated depression among older colorectal cancer survivors, especially using a population-based sample. The aim of this study was to identify correlates for positive depression screen among colorectal cancer survivors who underwent potentially curative surgery.
methodsUsing the 1998-2007 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End-Result registry and the Medicare Health Outcome Survey linked dataset, we identified patients over 65 with pathology confirmed and resected colorectal cancer enrolled in Medicare. Using univariate and multiple variable analyses, we identified characteristics of patients with and without positive depression screen.
resultsResected colorectal cancer patients (1785) (median age 77, 50.8 % female) were identified in the dataset with 278 (15.6 %) screening positive for symptoms of depression. Median time from diagnosis to survey was 62 months. On univariate analysis, larger tumor size, advanced cancer stage, and extent of resection were not correlates of depressive symptoms (all p > 0.05). After adjusting for confounders, income less than US$30,000 per year (OR 1.50, 1.02-2.22, 95 % CI, p = 0.042), non-white race (OR 1.51, 1.05-2.17, 95 % CI, p = 0.027), two or more comorbidities (OR 1.78, 1.25-2.52, 95 % CI, p = 0.001), and impairment in activities of daily living (OR 5.28, 3.67-7.60, 95 % CI, p < 0.001) were identified as independent correlates of depressive symptoms in colorectal cancer survivors.
conclusionsIn the current study, socioeconomic status and features of physical health rather than tumor characteristics were associated with symptoms of depression among long-term colorectal cancer survivors.
