Treat-to-Target and Regular Surveillance of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Are Associated with Low Incidence and Early-Stage Detection of Malignancies: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), increase the risk of malignancies, particularly colorectal cancer (CRC). We aimed to assess the incidence of malignancies in IBD patients managed using a treat-to-target approach and recommended surveillance. We retrospectively searched the electronic databases of two tertiary IBD centers in Milan from 2010 to 2019 for new diagnoses of malignancy in patients with pre-existing IBD. A total of 5239 patients with a follow-up of 19,820 years were included. In total, 71 malignancies were diagnosed in 70 patients (38 CD, 32 UC) with a mean age of 52.9 years, of whom 64% were former or active smokers. The annual incidence of all malignancies was 358 per 100,000 patient years (95% CI 275-444), and the standardized incidence rate (SIR) was 0.93 (95% CI 0.73-1.16). Gastrointestinal cancers were the most frequent (
