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

Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a hereditary disorder caused by constitutional pathogenic variants in the APC gene, leading to the development of up to hundreds of colorectal adenomas and a near-inevitable risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) if untreated. Traditional management relies on prophylactic colectomy, but advances in endoscopic techniques and chemoprevention offer alternative strategies to delay or even avoid surgery. This review explores the role of endoscopic surveillance, polypectomy strategies, and chemopreventive agents in FAP management, evaluating their efficacy, limitations, and the need for personalized approaches.
