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

backgroundMost colorectal cancers originate from precancerous polyps. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of colorectal polyps with diverse pathological morphologies and to explore the risk factors for colorectal carcinoma in situ (CCS) and neoplastic polyps.

methodsInpatients admitted from January 2018 to May 2023 were screened through the hospital information system. Polyps were classified according to pathological morphology. The prevalence of polyps was described by frequency and 95% confidence interval. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to explore the risk factors for CCS and neoplastic polyps.

resultsIn total, 2329 individuals with 3550 polyps were recruited. Among all patients, 76.99% had neoplastic polyps and 44.31% had advanced adenomas. Tubular adenoma had the highest prevalence at 60.15%, and the prevalence of CCS was 3.86%. Patients with a colorectal polyp diameter ≥ 1.0 cm or number ≥ 3 were 8.07 times or 1.98 times more likely to develop CCS than were those with a diameter < 1.0 cm or number < 3, respectively (OR 8.07, 95%CI 4.48-14.55, p < 0.0001; and OR 1.98, 95%CI 1.27-3.09, p = 0.002). The risk of CCS with schistosome egg deposition was also significantly increased (OR 2.70, 95%CI 1.05-6.98). The higher the levels of carbohydrate antigen (CA) 724 (OR 1.01, 95%CI 1.00-1.02) and CA211 (OR 1.16, 95%CI 1.03-1.32) in patients with colorectal polyps were, the greater the risk of CCS. When colorectal neoplastic polyps were analyzed, we discovered that for each 1-year increase in age, the risk of neoplastic polyps increased by 3% (OR 1.03, 95%CI 1.02-1.04), p < 0.0001. Patients with a polyp diameter ≥ 1.0 cm had a 2.11-fold greater risk of neoplastic polyps compared to diameter < 1.0 cm patients (OR 3.11, 95%CI 2.48-3.92), p < 0.0001. In addition, multiple polyps and CA199 levels are risk factors for neoplastic polyps.

conclusionMore than 3/4 of colorectal polyp patients have neoplastic polyps. Patients are more inclined to develop CCS and neoplastic polyps if they have large polyps (> 1.0 cm) or multifocal polyps. The levels of the tumor markers CA724 and CA211 show some potential usefulness for predicting CCS and may be exploited for early identification of high-risk populations.
