Net survival of patients with colorectal cancer: a comparison of two periods.
Article in Updates in surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundThe purpose of our analysis was to compare the results of treatment in patients who underwent resection for colorectal carcinoma.
methodsIn the period from 1/1/1991 to 31/12/2000 1478 patients with colorectal carcinoma underwent potentially curative resection. We divided them into two 5-year period groups according to different treatment regimes. The 5-year net survival rate was estimated, where the net survival is the probability of survival derived solely from the cancer-specific hazard.
resultsIn a 10-year period, we resected 1478 patients. The 5-year net survival rate for R0-resected patients with colon cancer increased from 76.3 to 85.2% between the periods 1991-1995 and 1995-2000. The 5-year net survival rate for R0-resected patients with rectal cancer also increased from 67.5 to 73% in the same period.
conclusionA comparison of the 5-year net survival rate for R0-resected patients with colorectal cancer increased in the last period from 1995 to 2000 compared with the period from 1991 to 1995. In multivariate analysis, early stage at diagnosis and adjuvant chemotherapy was both associated with better net survival after surgery with curative intent. The improvement of net survival is potentially the result of combination of better surgical and adjuvant therapy.
