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

backgroundThis study aims to evaluate the clinicopathological significance and prognostic implications of intratumoral budding (ITB) in colorectal cancers (CRCs) through a meta-analysis.

methodsWe performed the meta-analysis using 13 eligible studies and investigated the rates of CRCs with high ITB. The correlation between ITB and clinicopathological characteristics, including disease-free survival, was evaluated.

resultsThe estimated rate of CRCs with high ITB was 0.233 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.177-0.299) in overall CRCs. High ITB was significantly correlated with tumor grade, lymphatic invasion, perineural invasion, pT stage, and lymph node metastasis. In addition, ITBs were more frequently found in medullary and signet-ring cell carcinomas than in conventional adenocarcinomas and mucinous carcinomas. However, the high ITB rate was not correlated with tumor border, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, or microsatellite instability. CRCs with a good response after neoadjuvant therapy revealed a lower rate of high ITB than those with a poor response (hazard ratio (HR) 0.114, 95% CI 0.070-0.179 vs. 0.321, 95% CI 0.204-0.467). In addition, CRCs with high ITB had a worse disease-free survival than those with low ITB (HR 1.426, 95% CI 1.092-1.863).

conclusionsThe ITB was significantly correlated with aggressive tumor behaviors and a worse prognosis in CRCs. The detection of ITB, as a histological parameter, can be useful for predicting clinicopathologic features and the prognosis of CRC.
