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

Objectives: To investigate the association between clinical/sociodemographic factors and labor market attachment, and to estimate employment probability 2 years after colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery. Background: A rising prevalence of younger CRC survivors commands a stronger focus on labor market attachment. The association between clinical factors like type of surgery and CRC survivors' labor market attachment remains poorly investigated. Methods: National registries provided information on employment status and clinical/sociodemographic variables for all 20- to 60-year-old CRC patients without previous cancer diagnosed in Denmark from 2001 to 2014, undergoing surgery and being attached to the labor market. Associations between clinical/sociodemographic factors and labor market attachment were investigated in multiple logistic regression analyses. Results: A total of 5755 CRC patients were included. Two years after surgery, 59.7% were working. Factors significantly associated with a higher probability of working were being in the 46 to 50 years age group, male gender, higher educational level, no comorbidity, working at the time of diagnosis, lower Union for International Cancer Control stage, and undergoing surgery in the most recent of four time-periods. Two years after undergoing surgery, the probability of working was significantly higher for left-sided than for right-sided colon resections, higher for low anterior resection (LAR)/high tumor than for LAR/low tumor, and higher for abdominoperineal resection than for Hartmann's procedure. Of the 4798 (86.8%) patients alive 2 years after surgery, 68.8% were working, 7.8% had retired, whereas 23.4% were on temporary benefits, sick leave, or disability pension. Conclusions: Clinical/sociodemographic factors were associated with the probability of working 2 years after surgery. This knowledge can be used to inform patients and target interventions towards patients with low post-CRC probability of working.
