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

backgroundAdenomas of colon and rectal are frequent colonoscopically found benign lesions. The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence of polyps among patients referred for colonoscopy and associated histopathological findings.

methodsIn this retrospective study, patients referred for colonoscopy at Shahid Madani Hospital from were enrolled. The records of the patients were evaluated for demographic data, polyp status along with size and location and type and histopathological findings of the polyps. The data obtained were statistically analyzed using SPSSv22.

resultsAmong 1600 patients who underwent colonoscopy, 260 were positive with polyps. The main symptom among these patients was lower gastrointestinal bleeding 44.2%. The average size of the polyps was 5.68 ± 2.66 and the incidence was significantly greatest among the age group of 51-65 years, p < 0.01. The commonest sites polyps were sigmoid and descending colon, 28.6% and 23.2%, respectively. Adenomatous polyps were the most frequent type, 58.3%. The morphology and pathology of the polyps were significantly associated with each other, p < 0.01.

conclusionOur study evaluates the retrospective data for polyp findings among colonoscopy patients. Early diagnosis of polyps can provide better therapeutic outcomes.
