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

Despite the overall decrease in incidence and mortality rates for older adults, colorectal cancer in young adults is increasing. We present a case of a 15-year-old male who presented with 1.5 weeks of intermittent, sharp, severe right-sided abdominal pain. Abdominal radiograph demonstrated an air-fluid level within the right hemiabdomen. Computed tomography demonstrated marked wall thickening and a mass at the junction of the ascending colon and hepatic flexure causing obliteration of the lumen with a fluid-filled, dilated ascending colon. Follow-up ultrasonography demonstrated a 5.9 × 3.9 cm targetoid lesion in the right upper quadrant concerning for intussusception. Contrast enema revealed failure of contrast filling beyond the hepatic flexure due to a lobulated central filling defect surrounded by a claw-like contrast extension. Pathology of the polypoid lesion revealed poorly differentiated signet ring cell adenocarcinoma of the colon at the hepatic flexure. Despite its rarity, this case elucidates the need to consider colorectal carcinoma in adolescent and young adult patients who present with recurrent abdominal signs and symptoms.
