Challenging Aspects of Familial Adenomatous Polyposis With Malignant Transformation: A Report of Two Cases.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a genetic disorder characterized by the early onset of hundreds of polyps in the gastrointestinal tract, mainly in the colon and rectum. Despite its rarity, data on FAP in Morocco remain limited due to the absence of a national registry and comparative case series. We present two cases of FAP diagnosed in Morocco. The two patients, one male and one female, had a mean age of 34 years. Initial colonoscopy revealed more than 100 polyps for both patients. The polyps varied in size and morphology, including flat, sessile, and pedunculated forms, and were distributed throughout the colon and rectum, and all showed adenomatous features on virtual chromoendoscopy. Histopathological examination of the polyps revealed a range of findings, from low-grade tubulovillous adenomas to moderately differentiated rectal adenocarcinoma. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) revealed duodenal polyps, with histology confirming tubular adenomas exhibiting both low- and high-grade dysplasia. Both patients underwent surgery: one had a subtotal colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis, and the other a total proctocolectomy with ileoanal anastomosis. The clinical evolution was marked by the development of colon adenocarcinoma in one patient and rectal adenocarcinoma in the other. Regular surveillance of the duodenal polyps was recommended every 1-2 years.
