Incidence of Colorectal Cancer After Intestinal Infection Due to
Article in World journal of oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Background: Methods: A retrospective study (2010 - 2020) was conducted using a Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) compliant national database. The International Classification of Disease ninth and 10th Codes (ICD-9, ICD-10), Current Procedural Terminology (CPT), and National Drug Codes were used to identify CRC diagnosis, CDI, and matching or control parameters. Patients were matched for age, sex, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), region of residence, and CDI treatment. An additional, but separate, query was executed to include obese patients with and without CDI, who were similarly matched and assessed for CRC. Statistical analyses were implemented to assess significance and estimate odds ratios (ORs). Results: CDI was associated with a decreased incidence of CRC (OR = 0.59, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.55 - 0.63), and the difference was statistically significant (P < 2.2 × 10 Conclusions: This study shows a statistically significant correlation between CDI and decreased incidence of CRC. Additionally, there is a statistically significant correlation between obese patients with CDI and an increased incidence of CRC. Further research is needed to explore the mechanism of this striking relationship and the implications of CDIs on the microbiome.
