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

In colorectal cancer, whereas mucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC) has several poor clinical prognostic factors compared to adenocarcinoma (AC), the prognosis of MAC remains controversial. We evaluated the prognosis of MAC without distant metastasis and the effects of adjuvant chemotherapy using health insurance registry data managed by South Korea. Patients with colorectal cancer between January 2014 and December 2016 were included (AC, 22,050 [96.8%]; MAC, 729 [3.2%]). We observed no difference in overall survival (OS) between AC and MAC in stages I and II. However, MAC showed a worse OS than AC in stage III disease, especially in patients administered chemotherapy (p < 0.001). These findings persisted after propensity score matching of clinical characteristics between AC and MAC. In addition, transcriptome analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data showed increased chemoresistance-associated pathways in MAC compared to AC. In consensus molecular subtypes (CMS) classification, unlike in AC, CMSs 1, 3, and 4 comprised most of MAC and the proportions of CMSs 3 and 4 increased with stage progression. These results suggest clues to overcome resistance to chemotherapy and develop targeted treatments in MAC.
