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

purposePatients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have an increased risk for colorectal cancer (CRC). In IBD patients, cancer is often diagnosed in advanced stages and conflicting data on survival compared to sporadic CRC have been reported. The aim of this study was to directly compare clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with IBD-CRC and sporadic CRC.

methodsThe clinical and pathological data of 63 patients with IBD-CRC and 3710 patients with sporadic CRC treated at the University Hospital of Erlangen between 1995 and 2015 were compared. Forty-seven M0 patients with IBD were matched with sporadic CRC patients after curative resection (R0) according to tumor localization, stage, sex, and year of treatment. Overall and disease-free survival were compared.

resultsSixty-three patients presented IBD-CRC. Fifty were affected with ulcerative colitis (UC) and 13 with Crohn's disease (CD). CRC was diagnosed within 1.45 years since last endoscopic surveillance. Twelve patients (19%) had a diagnosis of primary sclerosing cholangitis. In matched analysis, IBD patients were diagnosed with CRC at younger age compared to sporadic CRC and were more likely to have right-sided CRC (40% versus 23.3%) and rare histological subtypes (19% versus 9.2%). No differences in 5-year overall (78.7 versus 80.9 months) and 5-year disease-free survival (74.5 versus 70.2 months) were noted.

conclusionIBD-CRC patients were younger and more frequently had right-sided carcinomas compared to sporadic CRC. CRC in IBD patients did not show survival difference compared to matched-pair sporadic CRC patients without distant metastases after curative resection. Surveillance might be important for early detection of CRC in IBD patients.
