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

At present, cancer is still an important factor threatening human health. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the top three most common cancers worldwide and one of the deadliest malignancies in humans. The latest data showed that CRC incidence and mortality rank third and second, respectively, among global malignancies. Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial to reduce the morbidity, mortality and improve survival of patients with CRC, but the current early diagnostic methods have limitations. The effectiveness and compliance of diagnostic methods have a certain impact on whether people choose screening. In this editorial, we explore strategies for the early diagnosis of CRC, including stool-based, blood-based, direct visualization, and imaging examinations.
