Adherence to the World Cancer Research Fund/American Institute for Cancer Research cancer prevention recommendations throughout the life course and risk of colorectal cancer precursors.
Article in British journal of cancer, 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
backgroundDespite the increasing incidence in colorectal cancer (CRC) among the young population, the involvement of modifiable early-life exposures is understudied.
methodsWe prospectively investigated the association of lifestyle score, which measures adherence to the 2018 World Cancer Research Fund/American Institute for Cancer Research (WCRF/AICR) cancer prevention recommendations, in adolescence and adulthood with risk of CRC precursors in 34,509 women enrolled in the Nurses' Health Study II. Participants reported adolescent diet in 1998 and subsequently underwent at least one lower gastrointestinal endoscopy between 1999 and 2015. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using multivariable logistic regression for clustered data.
resultsDuring follow-up (1998-2015), 3036 women had at least one adenoma, and 2660 had at least one serrated lesion. In multivariable analysis, per unit increase in adolescent WCRF/AICR lifestyle score was not associated with risk of total adenoma or serrated lesions, in contrast to adult WCRF/AICR lifestyle score (OR = 0.92, 95% CI: 0.87-0.97, P
conclusionAdherence to the 2018 WCRF/AICR recommendations during adulthood but not during adolescence was associated with a lower risk of CRC precursors.
