Isolated liver metastasis detected 11 years after the curative resection of rectal cancer: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe duration of surveillance after curative resection of colorectal cancer (CRC) is generally 5 years. The overall incidence of recurrence more than 5 years after surgery for CRC in Japan has been reported to be 0.6%. Moreover, it is rare for CRC to have metachronous liver metastasis more than 10 years after surgery. Here, we present a case of liver metastasis detected 11 years after the curative resection of rectal cancer. CASE SUMMARY: A 72-year-old man was referred to our hospital after a liver tumor was detected by abdominal ultrasonography at another hospital. He had undergone surgery for rectal cancer 11 years previously. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) showed a tumor with a diameter of approximately 8 cm in the posterior segment, which was weakly and gradually enhanced.
conclusionIt is possible that a liver tumor is metastatic in a patient with a previous history of CRC, even if it was more than 10 years earlier.
