A Rare Case of Colon Cancer in a Young Patient With HIV Infection: Is it Time for New Colon Cancer Screening Guidelines for HIV Patients?
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection have a higher prevalence of colonic neoplasms than the general population. In these patients, tumors develop at an earlier age, are diagnosed at more advanced stages, and have a dismal prognosis. Current guidelines recommend initiating colon cancer screening in HIV patients at the age of 45 which is consistent with screening age in the general population. We present a rare case of colon cancer diagnosed in an HIV-infected patient at a young age of only 34 years. Therefore, we recommend early screening for colon cancer in HIV patients than the general population.
