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

backgroundDiabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with a greater risk for colorectal cancer (CRC).

objectiveThe objective of this article is to examine the endoscopic phenotype and histopathology of colorectal polyps in patients with vs without DM.

methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional study of patients who underwent colonoscopy at our university hospital and who completed a questionnaire. We collected endoscopy and histopathology data regarding colorectal adenomas and serrated polyps. Cox regression analyses were used to estimate adjusted prevalence ratios (PRs).

resultsWe examined a total of 3654 patients (mean age (SD): 62 (12) years, 47% males). Of them, 360 (9.9%) had DM. Overall, the prevalence of colorectal adenomas (42% vs 32%,

conclusionPatients with DM harbor more frequently multiple and proximal adenomas than those without DM. Close colonoscopic surveillance of DM patients is important to maximize the effectiveness of colonoscopic CRC prevention.
