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

backgroundCirculating tumor cells (CTCs) have been regarded as a promising biomarker for colorectal cancer (CRC); however, the prognostic value of post-operative (op) CTCs is still unclear. This study aimed to compare the recurrence prediction value of pre- and post-op CTCs in CRC patients treated with curative resection. PATIENTS AND

methodsConsecutive CRC patients treated with curative resection from January 2014 to March 2015 were identified. CTCs from 2.5 mL peripheral blood were enumerated with an ISETdevice-CTCBIOPSY

resultsA total of 138 patients (79 [57.2%] male; median age=62 [43-75] years) were enrolled. Patients with pre-op CTCs- had a 19.2% higher 3-year RFS rate (86.2%) than the combined cohorts with pre-op CTCs+ (67.0%) (

conclusionPost-op CTCs+, but not pre-op CTCs+, is an independent indicator of poor prognosis for CRC patients treated with curative resection. Patients with post-op CTCs+ have a higher risk of recurrence those with pre-op CTCs+. Evaluation of post-op, rather than pre-op, CTCs is warranted.
