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

Colorectal cancer (CRC) in the young adult population is of increasing incidence and concern. Since 1994, CRC incidence in individuals younger than 50 years has been increasing by 2% per year. The surge of CRC incidence in young adults is particularly alarming as the overall CRC frequency has been decreasing. Young-onset CRCs are characterized by more advanced stage at diagnosis, poorer cell differentiation, higher prevalence of signet ring cell histology, and left-colon sided location of the primary tumor. Genetic predisposition and heritable syndromes contribute to this trend, but perhaps more concerning is the majority of new diagnoses that involve no traceable genetic risk factors are sporadic. This review provides a summary of key aspects related to colorectal cancer in young adults, including epidemiology, etiology, genetics, clinical difficulties, early diagnosis, and prevention with emphasis on screening age.
