Genomic mosaicism in colorectal cancer and polyposis syndromes: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in International journal of colorectal disease, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) and polypoid syndromes are significant public health concerns, with somatic mosaicism playing a crucial role in their genetic diversity. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and impact of somatic mosaicism in these conditions.
methodsA search was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Sciences to identify studies evaluating mosaicism in patients with CRC or polyposis syndromes. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to determine prevalence rates. Statistical analyses were performed using R software 4.3.
resultsA total of 27 studies, encompassing 2272 patients, were included in the analysis. Of these, 108 patients exhibited somatic mosaicism, resulting in an overall prevalence of 8.79% (95% CI 5.1 to 14.70%, I
conclusionsOur findings support the growing recognition of mosaicism as a critical factor in CRC susceptibility and underscore the importance of incorporating mosaicism screening into routine genetic testing for at-risk patients.
