Characteristics of Advanced Colorectal Cancer Detected by Fecal Immunochemical Test Screening in Participants with a Negative Result the Previous Year.

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
backgroundThere is sufficient evidence to show the mortality reduction effect of colorectal cancer (CRC) screening programs using the fecal occult blood test (FOBT). However, we see cases that are found to be advanced CRC despite yearly FOBT screening.
methodsThe aim of this study was to investigate the characteristics of advanced CRC detected by a fecal immunochemical test (FIT) screening program in participants with a negative screening result the previous year, which we call "Negative advanced CRC". A total of 109,639 participants (10.0% required colonoscopy, of whom 76.9% received one) underwent a CRC screening program using a FIT from fiscal 2009 to 2017. Negative advanced CRC was compared with advanced CRC (First advanced CRC) found at the first visit in a person who had not had a FIT screening history for more than 3 years. In addition, we compared the characteristics of Negative advanced CRC with those of interval cancer: cancer cases detected after a negative screening result and before the date of the next recommended screening.
resultsA total of 339 cases of CRC (175 male: 164 female, 173 early stage: 166 advanced stage) were detected in the nine-year CRC screening period. The rate of right-sided CRCs was significantly higher in female (
conclusionThe characteristics of Negative advanced CRC cases (female and right-sided colon) were similar to those of interval cancer reported so far. In the future, it will be necessary to introduce a screening program that is highly sensitive to right-sided CRC.
