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

backgroundRates of colectomy for ulcerative colitis have been decreasing, particularly since the advent of biologics, but the subsequent impact of reduced colectomy rates on the development of neoplasms in chronically treated ulcerative colitis colons is unknown. PURPOSE: To determine trends in colectomy for colorectal neoplasms in adult patients with ulcerative colitis.

methodsAdult admissions with ulcerative colitis were identified from the National Inpatient Sample from 1993 to 2015. The rate of colectomy with concurrent colorectal neoplasm served as the primary outcome and was evaluated using time trend linear and multivariable regression.

resultsThere were 366,286 admissions with ulcerative colitis including 16,556 (4.5%) total colectomies. Of those undergoing colectomy, 2018 (12.2%) had a concurrent diagnosis of colorectal neoplasm. The proportion of colectomies for ulcerative colitis with concurrent colorectal neoplasm increased from 10.3 to 12.5% (p DISCUSSION: Operative management of ulcerative colitis appears to be slowly increasing in oncological indications. The rising proportions of colectomies performed for colorectal neoplasms suggest the need for continued screening in these patients, including rectal surveillance.
