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

backgroundTo investigate the relationship between interstitial maturity and prognosis of colorectal cancer.

aimTo examine the correlation between interstitial maturity and the prognosis of colorectal cancer.

methodsThe paper database PubMed, EMBASE, Cochranelibrary, Springerlink, CNKI, and Wanfang database were searched until December 2023. "tumor stroma maturity" "desmoplastic stroma reaction" "desmoplastic reaction" "stroma reaction" "degree of stroma reaction "" stroma classification" "stroma density" "colorectal cancer" "colon cancer" "rectal cancer" "prognosis" were searched for the search terms. Two system assessors independently screened the literature quality according to the inclusion exclusion criteria, Quality evaluation and data extraction were performed for the included literatures, and meta-analysis was performed for randomized control trials included at using Review Manager 5.2 software.

resultsFinally, data of 9849 patients with colorectal cancer from 19 cosets in 15 literatures were included, including 4339 patients with mature type (control group), 3048 patients with intermediate type (intermediate group) and 2456 patients with immature type (immature group). The results of meta-analysis showed: Relapse-free survival [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.66, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.30-3.08;

conclusionThere is the correlation between tumor interstitial maturity and survival prognosis of colorectal cancer, and different degrees of tumor interstitial maturity have a certain impact on the quality of life of colorectal cancer patients.
