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

objectiveAssociations between major mental disorders (MMDs) and colorectal cancer (CRC) have been reported; however, it remains unknown whether this association extends to an individual's kinship. The aim of this study was to explore the risks of MMDs in first-degree relatives (FDRs) of individuals with CRC.

methodsWe used data from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. FDRs of individuals with CRC were identified as the index group, and a demographic-matched group was also included as the controls. The primary outcome was the risk of an MMD. A Poisson regression model with robust error variance was used to estimate the relative risks and 95% confidence intervals.

resultsA total of 68,965 FDRs of individuals with CRC (38,024 males and 30,941 females) and 275,860 matched controls were included. After adjustments for potential confounders, the FDR-CRC group had a higher risk of autism spectrum disorder than the controls, especially in the males of fathers with CRC. In addition, individuals who had a son with CRC had a higher risk of bipolar disorder than the controls, especially females. Males whose mother had CRC had higher risks of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and general anxiety disorder than the controls.

conclusionWith the unique association identified in this study between FDRs of individuals with CRC and the risk of MMDs, genetic studies are encouraged to explore the complicated etiologies behind this association.
