Progress Report: New insights into the prevention of CRC by colonoscopic surveillance in Lynch syndrome.
Review in Familial cancer, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Lynch syndrome is the most frequent hereditary colorectal cancer (CRC) syndrome, affecting approximately 1 in 300 in the Western population. It is caused by pathogenic variants in the mismatch repair (MMR) genes including MLH1, MSH2 (EPCAM), MSH6 and PMS2, and is associated with high risks of CRC, endometrial cancer and other cancers. In view of these risks, carriers of such variants are encouraged to participate in colonoscopic surveillance programs that are known to substantially improve their prognosis. In the last decade several important studies have been published that provide detailed cancer risk estimates and prognoses based on large numbers of patients. These studies also provided new insights regarding the pathways of carcinogenesis in CRC, which appear to differ depending on the specific MMR gene defect. In this report, we will discuss the implications of these new findings for the development of new surveillance protocols.
