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

Background: Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is the third most common cancer globally. In Malaysia, CRC is most prevalent among males and the second most common cancer among females. The CRC arises mainly from the adenocarcinoma sequence. Poorly differentiated clusters (PDCs) and tumour budding (TB) are believed to represent sequential steps in tumour growth. Therefore, this study analysed the association between PDC grades with clinicopathological and demographic characteristics of CRC. Methods: A total of 47 CRC cases previously diagnosed by histopathological examination were reviewed for the presence of PDCs and graded accordingly. The association between PDC grades with clinicopathological and demographic characteristics was statistically analysed. Results: Out of the 47 cases with PDCs, most of them were of grade 3 (G3) ( Conclusion: The PDC grades are useful for assessing the disease prognosis in CRC. A statistically significant association between PDC grades with N and TNM stages suggested that PDC grades are potential predictive parameters for invasive and metastatic risks in CRC.
