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

purposeThe escalating disease burden associated with pancreatic cancer has led to its inclusion as a target of public health efforts. The relationship between the consumption of cruciferous vegetables and the incidence of pancreatic cancer has generated conflicting findings in various epidemiological studies.

methodsEligible studies were cohort or case-control studies reporting on the association between consumption of cruciferous vegetables and pancreatic cancer. PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase were systematically searched for potential studies before 27 July2022. These databases were finally searched again on 1 February 2023. The meta-analysis was conducted using random-effects models, and Stata 17 was employed for the statistical analyses.

resultsSixteen studies, encompassing 1,135,281 participants from 1989 to 2021, met the inclusion criteria. An inverse association of statistical significance was observed (RR 0.83, 95% CI 0.72-0.96). The sensitivity analysis indicates that this result is robust. We conducted subgroup analyses based on region, gender, study design, quality, exclusivity to endocrine tumors, adjustment for smoking, alcohol consumption, diabetes, and BMI.

conclusionThis review provided support for the inclusion of cruciferous vegetables in the diet as a cost-effective and readily available prevention.
