Specific features of colorectal cancer in patients with metabolic syndrome: a matched case-control analysis of 772 patients.

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
purposeAlthough association between colorectal cancer (CRC) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) is established, specific features of CRC arising in patients presenting with MetS have not been clearly identified.
methodAll patients who underwent colectomy for CRC from January 2005 to December 2014 at Institut Mutualiste Montsouris were identified from a prospectively collected database and characteristics were compared in the entire population and in a 1:2 matched case-control analysis [variables on which matching was performed were CRC localization (right- or left-sided) and AJCC stage (0 to IV)].
resultsOut of the 772 identified patients, 98 (12.7%) presented with MetS. Entire population analysis revealed that CRC associated with MetS was more frequent in men (71.4 vs. 47.8%, p < 0.001), more often right-sided (71.4 vs. 50.4%, p < 0.001) and presented with less synchronous liver metastasis (4.1 vs. 8.7%, p = 0.002). Case-control analysis confirmed the gender association (p < 0.001) and showed HNPCC (p < 0.001) and history family of CRC (p = 0.010) to be significantly more frequent in Non-MetS patients.
conclusionsCRC associated with MetS is more frequent in men, more often right-sided, and presents with fewer synchronous metastasis. Further investigations should be designed in order to confirm these results and to enhance our knowledge of carcinogenesis related to MetS.
