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

backgroundThe proportion of young patients with colorectal cancer (CRC), especially in their 40s, is increasing worldwide.

aimTo confirm the clinical characteristics of such patients, we planned a study comparing them to patients in their 30s and 50s.

methodsPatients undergoing primary resection for CRC, patients in their 30s, 40s and 50s were included in the study. Patient and tumor characteristics, and perioperative and oncologic outcomes were compared.

resultsMost clinical characteristics of 451 (10.5%) patients in their 40s were more similar to those of patients in their 30s than those in their 50s. On pathology data, there were more metastatic lesions (30s

conclusionPatients with CRC in their 40s showed significantly more numerous metastatic lesions. The oncologic outcome of stage 1-3 patients in their 40s was not inferior compared to that of those in their 30s and 50s.
