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

Cronkhite-Canada syndrome (CCS) can be difficult to diagnose. To diagnose CCS, it is important to perform endoscopic examination for patients with chronic diarrhea, check for the presence or absence of polyposis, and evaluate inflammation in the mucosa between the polyps. This study reported seven cases of CCS. The age of the patients, which included four men and three women, ranged 48-72 years, and all patients were Asian. The most common symptom among these patients was chronic diarrhea. Three of the patients had rectal cancer. In two patients, the lesions were detected at an early stage and resected via endoscopic treatment. CCS is associated with a high risk of malignant gastrointestinal lesions, especially rectal cancers, and periodic surveillance endoscopy and careful observation are required.
