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 unique and fundamental characteristic of malignant neoplastic cells is their ability to invade other tissues and metastasise. The first step in this process is the dissociation of some of these cells from the tumour invasion front, named tumour budding (TB). This phenomenon has become increasingly relevant in recent years due to its association with adverse clinicopathological characteristics and with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition. TB has been studied by mixing colon with rectal tumours, but it is clinically important to differentiate these types of tumours. A review in two databases without language restriction was performed from 1950 to 2017 about TB with an emphasis on rectal cancer. We present various aspects of TB, from its terminology and evaluation to its molecular aspects, through its clinical associations. TB is associated with adverse clinicopathological features, like lymphovascular invasion, lymph node metastasis, and decreased survival. More studies of the clinicopathological, molecular, and epidemiological characteristics of TB in rectal cancer are needed.
