Article in Gastroenterology report, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05374369 (Retrospective Analysis of Colorectal Cancer Screening Results Among People Aged 40-74 in Shipai Town, Dongguan City, China), which is not on this map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

Abstract

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third-most-common malignancy and the second-leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide and current screening methods such as guaiac-based fecal occult blood test (gFOBT), fecal immunochemical test (FIT), and colonoscopy have their own pros and cons. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a fecal DNA methylation test by using methylated Methods: Fecal m Results: The positivity rate of m Conclusions: The single-target stool-based m Trial registration number: NCT05374369.
