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

Optimal management of T1 colorectal cancer (CRC) remains controversial. This study compared the long-term outcomes of endoscopic resection with additional surgical resection (ER + ASR) versus primary surgical resection (PS) in patients with T1 CRC and identified risk factors for lymph node metastasis (LNM). This retrospective cohort study included 373 patients with T1 CRC who underwent ER + ASR or PS between January 2010 and December 2020 at a tertiary center in Taiwan. Surgical and oncological outcomes, including recurrence rates, LNM, 5-year overall survival (OS), and 5-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) were compared. Univariate and multivariate analyses identified risk factors for LNM. No significant differences were observed between the ER + ASR and PS groups in surgical outcomes, recurrence rates, LNM, 5-year OS (93% vs. 89%, P = 0.18), or 5-year RFS (89% vs. 88%, P = 0.47). Patients with ≥ 2 high-risk factors had significantly lower 5-year OS and RFS compared to those with ≤ 1 risk factor (p < 0.01). Poor histology grade and lymphovascular invasion were independent risk factors for LNM. ER + ASR and PS had comparable long-term outcomes in patients with T1 CRC. A multidisciplinary approach and standardized protocols are required for optimal management of early-stage CRC.
