Determining the Survival Rate of Colorectal Cancer in Iran: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

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
Objective: Colorectal cancer is one of the most common causes of death in the world. Despite of remarkable advances in medical sciences, cancer is an important disease and the second cause of death after cardiovascular diseases. The present study was aimed at determining the survival rate of colorectal cancer in Iran. Methods: The present study is a systematic review of national and international electronic databases. Studies that had the inclusion criteria were included in the study, electronically published articles over December 2007 and March 2015 were retrieved. The collected data were analyzed by meta-analytic method through stata 11.0 Software, and the survival rate was measured. Results: The 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-year survival rates of colorectal cancer in Iran were respectively calculated as 85, 75.10, 65, 55.40, and 52.The results indicated that there is a significant relationship between anatomic location of tumor and survival rate. According to the results of this examination, survival rate of the patients with rectal cancer was 41.9 times higher than those with colorectal cancer. Conclusion: Due to the relative high prevalence of this cancer among young people in Iran and the low survival rate, early diagnosis of colorectal neoplasms is necessary before they become symptomatic through more effective diagnosis programs of enhancing the patients’ health and survival rate. Moreover, it is necessary to conduct more specialized and relevant studies in order to determine genetic or environmental causes of cancer such as diet and cultural and behavioral habits at the national level and with different ethnicities.
