Colorectal and gastric cancer and its association with dietary patterns in Colombia.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Introduction: Cancer is a leading cause of death in the Americas. Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer, while stomach cancer is the sixth most common cancer worldwide. Tobacco and alcohol consumption, unhealthy diet, physical inactivity and air pollution are risk factors for these cancers. This study aimed to identify the association between dietary patterns and gastric and colorectal cancer. Methodology: A multi-cluster ecological study, using as secondary sources two national databases, the HIGIA (High-Cost Account) and the ENSIN 2015 (National Survey of Nutritional Status of Colombia 2015), was carried out. The population consisted of 2585 people over 50 years of age, distributed in six regions of Colombia: Results: A positive association was observed between colorectal cancer and non-compliance with the recommendation of vigorous physical activity (p = 0.00) and consumption of beverages/grilled food pattern (p = 0.001). Conversely, it decreased incidence by enjoying some specific health insurance and following a conservative dietary pattern (p = 0.05). Gastric cancer incidence was found to increase with age (p = 0.000), sex (p = 0.001), and consumption of the beverages/grilled food pattern (p = 0.006). However, being in the first wealth quartile decreased the incidence (p = 0.002). Conclusion: There is evidence of an association between diet, physical activity and wealth quartile with colorectal and gastric cancer. This information should be considered for preventive interventions in the population.
