Colorectal Cancer Prevalence and Survival in Cuenca (Spain).
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal cancer, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundColorectal cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer type and the second cause of cancer death in Spain. The primary risk factor for colorectal cancer is age, with 90% of all diagnosed patients aged over 50 years. Prognosis mainly depends on tumour stage.
aimConduct a colorectal cancer prevalence and survival study in Cuenca (Spain) since there are almost no studies based on small populations. This is the first study about survival in screening of colorectal cancer carried out in hospitals in Castilla-La Mancha.
methodsRetrospective descriptive cohort study was performed to include patients with colorectal cancer diagnosed by colonoscopy between May 2015 and April 2016, and who were followed up for 48 months. The study considered sociodemographic and clinical data of the patients. Survival curves were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. The proportional hazard rate associated with age, gender, stage, and presence of metastasis was calculated using the Cox regression method.
resultsFifty-seven patients were included in the study. The mean follow-up was 45.5 months. Ten patients died during the study; in seven cases, the cause was colorectal cancer. The percentage of patients alive at a 48-month follow-up was 82.4%.
conclusionColon cancer is a high-prevalence pathology, with adenocarcinoma being the most common histology. The results seem to indicate that it affects men more frequently, mortality rises with tumour stage at diagnosis and declines with use of chemotherapy. We present a study that could justify large-scale epidemiological studies for the regional surveillance and evolution of colorectal cancer in Spain.
