Colorectal Cancer Screening and Management in Low- and Middle-Income Countries and High-Income Countries: A Narrative Review.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a leading global health challenge, being a highly prevalent cancer and a major cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The incidence of CRC varies significantly between high-income countries (HICs) and low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), with higher rates of incidence but lower mortality in HICs. Factors such as genetic predisposition, lifestyle, and dietary habits play significant roles in CRC development, with the Western diet and limited access to screening contributing to increased incidence. This review highlights disparities in CRC screening, management, and outcomes between HICs and LMICs, with HICs benefiting from advanced screening methods like colonoscopy and sigmoidoscopy, while LMICs face challenges due to limited healthcare infrastructure and resources. Tailored strategies, including low-cost screening options and community-based initiatives, are critical in LMICs to improve early detection and outcomes. Future directions for improving CRC care globally include telemedicine, artificial intelligence, and mobile health technologies to bridge access gaps, as well as personalized medicine to enhance treatment efficacy. Global collaboration and investment in healthcare infrastructure are necessary to reduce CRC-related mortality, particularly in resource-limited settings.
