Can factors that influence nodal dissemination in patients with colorectal cancer be identified? Own experience.

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
introductionAs one of the most common causes of cancer deaths in Poland, colorectal cancer, remains a mystery when factors affecting local and distant lymph node metastasis are concerned.
aimIn this study the authors have analysed possible correlations between the number of regional (and distant) lymph nodes affected by cancer, location and stage of the primary tumour, levels of oncological markers CA19-9 and CEA, and the patients age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and other clinical symptoms. MATERIAL AND
methodsA special questionnaire was created for this study, and a group of 100 men and women was selected. All patients in the study group had undergone surgery due to colorectal cancer.
resultsThere were no statistically significant relationships between age, and number and location of metastases (
conclusionsThe location of the primary tumour, and its pathological stage and size does not seem to have a direct correlation with the occurrence of regional lymph node metastases. Metastasis to distant lymph nodes seems to be a consequence of metastases in regional nodes. Elevated CEA tumour marker values are significantly related to metastases in regional lymph nodes. The elevation of CA 19-9 and CEA tumour markers significantly correlates with the presence of metastasis to distant lymph nodes. The location of the primary tumour determines the formation of metastases in distant lymph nodes.
