Serrated polyps in patients with ulcerative colitis: Unique clinicopathological and biological characteristics.
Article in PloS one, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
backgroundSerrated polyps have recently been reported in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC); however, their prevalence and detailed characteristics remain unclear.
methodsThe prevalence and clinicopathological and biological characteristics of serrated polyps in patients with UC were retrospectively examined in a single tertiary inflammatory bowel disease center in Japan from 2000 to 2020.
resultsAmong 2035 patients with UC who underwent total colonoscopy, 252 neoplasms, including 36 serrated polyps (26 in colitis-affected segments, 10 in colitis-unaffected segments), were identified in 187 patients with UC. The proportion of serrated polyps was 1.8% (36/2035). Serrated polyps in colitis-affected segments were common with extensive colitis (88%), history of persistent active colitis (58%), and long UC duration (12.1 years). Serrated polyps in colitis-affected segments were more common in men (88%). Of the 26 serrated polyps in colitis-affected segments, 15, 6, and 5 were categorized as sessile serrated lesion-like dysplasia, traditional serrated adenoma-like dysplasia, and serrated dysplasia not otherwise specified, respectively. Sessile serrated lesion-like dysplasia was common in the proximal colon (67%) and with BRAF mutation (62%), whereas traditional serrated adenoma-like dysplasia and serrated dysplasia not otherwise specified were common in the distal colon (100% and 80%, respectively) and with KRAS mutations (100% and 75%, respectively).
conclusionsSerrated polyps comprised 14% of the neoplasias in patients with UC. Serrated polyps in colitis-affected segments were common in men with extensive and longstanding colitis, suggesting chronic inflammation in the development of serrated polyps in patients with UC.
