Gender difference in metabolic syndrome and incident colorectal adenoma: A prospective observational study (KCIS No.42).

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
abstractThis community-based study aimed to elucidate whether there is a gender difference in the effect of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its individual components on an elevated risk for incident colorectal adenoma.A prospective cohort study was conducted by enrolling 59,767 subjects aged 40 years or older between 2001 and 2009 in Keelung, Taiwan, to test this hypothesis, excluding those with a prior history of colorectal cancer and those with colorectal cancer diagnosed at the first screening. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to assess the effect of MetS in terms of a dichotomous classification, each individual component and the number of components for males and females.Colorectal adenoma was present in 2.7% (n = 652) of male participants and 1.1% (n = 403) of female participants. The prevalence rate of MetS was 26.7% and 23.3% for males and females, respectively. The effect of MetS on colorectal adenoma was statistically significant and similar for the 2 genders, with an adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) of 1.33 (95% CI: 1.13-1.58) in males and 1.33 (95% CI: 1.06-1.66) in females after adjustment for confounders. However, MetS led to higher risk of advanced colorectal adenoma in men than in women. Regarding the effect of each component of MetS on colorectal adenoma, abnormal waist circumference and hypertriglyceridemia led to an elevated risk of colorectal adenoma in both genders. A rising risk of colorectal adenoma among females was noted in those with a moderately higher level of glycemia (100-125 mg/dL, aHR = 1.44, 95% CI: 1.12-1.85). Hypertriglyceridemia and high blood pressure were associated with an increased risk of advance colorectal adenoma in males.Both male and female subjects with MetS had a higher risk of colorectal adenoma. The contributions from individual components of MetS varied by gender. These findings suggest that the possible risk reduction of colorectal adenoma through metabolic syndrome-based lifestyle modifications may differ between genders.
