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

backgroundIt is important to implement a preventive strategy for early detection and endoscopic removal of metachronous adenoma in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). Here, we retrospectively explored the associated factors of metachronous adenoma in these patients.

methodsThis study recruited 551 patients with stage I and II CRC who underwent radical surgery between January 1, 2012 and July 1, 2017 with postoperative colonoscopic surveillance. Data on clinicopathological characteristics and surveillance colonoscopies were obtained from medical records. Univariate analysis by Kaplan-Meier method and multivariate analysis by Cox proportional hazards model were used to identify the factors associated with metachronous adenoma.

resultsMetachronous adenoma was detected in 110 (20.0%) patients. In these patients, 94.5% (104/110) had metachronous adenoma within 3 years postoperatively. Age, synchronous adenoma, hypertension, tumor stage, and surgical resection were correlated with metachronous adenoma in patients with stage I-II CRC after radical resection (log rank test, P<0.05). Multivariate analyses showed that synchronous adenoma (HR =2.515, 95% CI: 1.691-3.742, P<0.01); stage II (HR =2.066, 95% CI: 1.329-3.210, P<0.01); and left-side colorectal resection (HR =2.207, 95% CI: 1.292-3.772, P<0.01) were independent risk factors.

conclusionsSynchronous adenoma, left-side colorectal resection, and stage II cancer are independent risk factors of metachronous adenoma in patients with previous stage I and II CRC. In patients with risk factors, an enhanced colonoscopic strategy might be needed for early detection and timely endoscopic removal of metachronous adenoma.
