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

Background and Aim: Emerging endoscopic techniques are expanding opportunities for minimally invasive therapy in early colorectal cancers (CRCs). Data regarding the clinicopathological features and outcomes of colon versus rectal cancers in Tis, T1, and T2 stages remain limited. This study evaluates and compares these two entities to clarify their oncologic differences. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients with pTis-T2 CRCs treated by endoscopic or surgical resection at a single Japanese center between 2001 and 2022. Tumor location was classified as rectum (Ra, Rb) or colon (cecum to RS). Clinical variables (sex and age), pathological features (tumor size, differentiation, lymphatic invasion [Ly], vascular invasion [V], and tumor budding), and recurrence and metastasis rates were compared according to tumor location. Results: The proportion of rectal cancer rose with invasion depth, from 16.2% (271/1673) in Tis to 18.5% (248/1337) in T1 and 26.4% (178/675) in T2 ( Conclusions: Rectal cancers demonstrate more aggressive features and higher recurrence rates than colon cancers. Consequently, these patients require more stringent therapeutic approaches and rigorous postoperative surveillance, even in early stages. Trial Registration: Umin Clinical Trials Registry, UMIN 000042622.
