Medical Record Survey after Comprehensive Health Checkup Referral and Its Contribution to the Early Detection of Cancer.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 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
Comprehensive health checkups in Japan are a preventive method to detect cancer and metabolic diseases. Unlike group medical examinations, individual examinations in health checkups are possible, with additional tests possible for disease detection. However, it is difficult to accurately ascertain the results from only the report after referral to a medical institution in individuals suspected of having cancer who need to be examined. We aimed to conduct a medical record survey of patients referred to the Hospital after undergoing a comprehensive health checkup and investigate the contribution of comprehensive health checkups to the detection of cancer more accurately. The subjects were 1763 examinees who were referred to various departments of our hospital because of doubtful cancer from 23,128 examinees who underwent comprehensive health checkups in our center from January 2018 to December 2022 for 5 years. The medical record survey demonstrated that cancer was detected in more than twice as many individuals as reported and other sources. Early-stage cancers require a significantly longer time to establish a definitive diagnosis. In conclusion, short-term reports from the referring hospital are insufficient for a final diagnosis, and long-term follow-up is extremely important to increase the diagnosis rates of cancer for comprehensive health checkups.
