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

Purpose: TNM stage I colorectal cancer (CRC) can recur, although the recurrence rate is low. Few studies have evaluated the risk factors for TNM stage I CRC recurrence. This study aimed to evaluate the TNM stage I CRC recurrence rate, as well as risk factors for recurrence. Methods: In this retrospective study, we reviewed the database of patients who had undergone surgery for TNM stage I CRC between November 2008 and December 2014 without receiving neoadjuvant therapy or transanal excision for rectal cancer. Our analysis included 173 patients. Primary lesions were found in the colon of 133 patients and in the rectum of 40 patients. Results: The CRC recurrence rate was 2.9% (5 out of 173 patients). For colon cancer patients, tumor size was not associated with higher recurrence risk (P = 0.098). However, for rectal cancer patients, both tumor size (≥3 cm) and T stage were associated with higher recurrence risk (P = 0.046 and P = 0.046, respectively). Of the 5 recurrent cases, 1 patient exhibited disease progression despite treatment, 1 patient maintained stable disease status after recurrence treatment, and 3 patients had no evidence of a tumor after recurrence treatment. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that tumor size and T stage are predictors of stage I rectal cancer recurrence, and careful monitoring and follow-up of patients with larger tumors may be warranted.
