Esophagogastroscopic Abnormalities Potentially Guided Patients Younger than 50 Years Old to Undergo Colonoscopy Earlier: A Retrospective Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundThe incidence of early-onset colorectal cancer (CRC) is continuously increasing worldwide. Current guidelines in China recommend average-risk individuals starting CRC screening at age 50.
aimsTo investigate the relationship between the gastric histopathology and colorectal neoplasms to identify CRC risk factors which potentially guide earlier colonoscopy in individuals aged < 50 years.
methodsA retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted on 8819 patients younger than age 50 who underwent gastroscopy and colonoscopy simultaneously between November 7, 2020 and November 14, 2022. Multivariate logistic regression was used to evaluate whether various gastric histopathology are risk factors for different types of colorectal polyps, reporting odds ratios (ORs) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
resultsA total of 3390 cases (38.44%) under 50 years old were diagnosed as colorectal polyps. Advanced age (OR 1.66, 95%CI 1.57-1.76), male sex (OR 2.67, 95%CI 2.33-3.08), Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection (OR 1.43, 95%CI 1.24-1.65), gastric polyps (OR 1.29, 95%CI 1.10-1.52), and low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LGIN) (OR 2.52, 95%CI 1.39-4.57) were independent risk factors for colorectal adenomas. For non-adenomatous polyps, reflux esophagitis (OR 1.38, 95%CI 1.11-1.71) was also an independent risk factor. Besides, older age (OR 1.90, 95%CI 1.66-2.18), male sex (OR 2.15, 95%CI 1.60-2.87), and H. pylori infection (OR 1.67, 95%CI 1.24-2.24) were associated with a higher risk of advanced neoplasms (advanced adenoma and CRC).
conclusionsEarlier colonoscopy for identification and screening may need to be considered for individuals younger than 50 years old with H. pylori infection, LGIN, gastric polyps, and reflux esophagitis. Risk-adapted CRC screening initiation age allows a personalized and precise screening.
