Colorectal Cancer Screening Outcomes of 2412 Prostate Cancer Patients Considered for Carbon Ion Radiotherapy.
Article in Cancers, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Colorectal cancer (CRC) screening is effective for detecting cancer in average-risk adults. For prostate cancer (PCa) patients considered for carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT), pre-treatment CRC screening is performed empirically to avoid post-treatment colonoscopic manipulation. However, the outcomes of screening this population remain unclear. Here, we compared the outcomes of routine pre-CIRT CRC screening of 2412 PCa patients at average risk for CRC with data from two published datasets: the Japan National Cancer Registry (JNCR) and a series of 17 large-scale screening studies analyzing average-risk adults. The estimated prevalence rate was calculated using the pooled sensitivity elucidated by a previous meta-analysis. Consequently, 28 patients (1.16%) were diagnosed with CRC. CRC morbidity was significantly associated with high pre-treatment levels of prostate-specific antigen (
