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

There have been multiple recent updates for recommendations pertaining to colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. Among the most notable is the recommendation from several guideline-issuing bodies to initiate CRC screening examinations at 45 years of age for individuals at average risk for CRC. Current CRC screening methods include stool-based tests and colon visualization examinations. Currently recommended stool-based tests include fecal immunochemical testing, high-sensitivity guaiac-based fecal occult blood testing, and multitarget stool DNA testing. Visualization examinations include colonoscopy, computed tomography colonography, colon capsule endoscopy, and flexible sigmoidoscopy. Although these screening tests have shown encouraging results for CRC detection, there are important differences between these testing modalities for precursor lesion detection and management. In addition, emerging CRC screening methods are being developed and evaluated. However, additional large, multicenter clinical trials in diverse populations are needed to validate the diagnostic accuracy and generalizability of these new tests. This article reviews the recently updated CRC screening recommendations and current and emerging testing options.
