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

Aim: To investigate the relationship between the three timepoint perioperative CEA (ttpCEA) calculated at three timepoints and recurrence during the perioperative period in Stage II and III colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. Methods: We performed a multi-institutional retrospective analysis of patients with Stage II and III CRC who underwent surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy from 2010 to 2020. Patient data from three facilities were used as training data, and data from three other facilities were used as validation data. The primary endpoint was the time to recurrence (TTR). Results: A total of 538 patients were included for the training data. To validate the feasibility of ttpCEA, 329 patients were included for the validation data. Training data patients were categorized as ttpCEA low ( Conclusion: The ttpCEA calculated from perioperative CEA levels at different timepoints was a prognostic factor for recurrence in Stage II and III CRC patients who underwent adjuvant chemotherapy according to both the training and validation data.
