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

Background: The occurrence of colorectal cancer (CRC) is increasing among young adults, but the etiology is still largely unknown. In addition to germline monogenetic variants also polygenic risk scores (PRS) have been proven to correctly estimate the risk of CRC. Case Description: We present a 24-year-old male with disseminated colon cancer who carried a germline duplication on chromosome 1 spanning 200 kb and covering Conclusions: Our findings do not support that this duplication is a monogenetic cause of CRC, nor did a PRS point towards an increased risk in this 24-year-old male. Whether the duplication is a risk factor in combination with other genetic and non-genetic risk factors requires further studies.
