Colonic Polyps: Diagnosis and Surveillance.
Review in Clinics in colon and rectal surgery, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Colorectal cancer begins as a polyp that is a benign growth on the mucosal surface of the colon or rectum. Over a period of 5 to 15 years, polyps can degenerate into a cancer, thus invading the colonic wall. Colorectal screening methods are designed to diagnose and remove polyps before they acquire invasive potential and develop into cancer. Screening for colorectal cancer can prevent and reduce mortality. Given the benefits and effectiveness of screening, guidelines exist from multiple organizations. These guidelines risk-stratify patients to determine the age of screening initiation and the interval for repeat screening. Categories of colorectal cancer risk include average risk, increased risk, and high risk based on individual and family medical history. Screening methods vary widely in the ability to diagnose and treat polyps and in the degree of invasiveness or risk of complication to the patient. Colonoscopy is held as the "gold standard" by which all other methods are compared; however, less-invasive modalities including computed tomographic colonography are increasing in popularity.
