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

backgroundIndividuals with diabetes and metabolic syndrome have an increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), suggesting earlier screening than the average-risk population may be warranted.

aimsTo derive risk-adapted starting ages of CRC screening for people with diabetes or metabolic syndrome.

methodsWe determined 5-year cumulative risks of CRC at individual ages between 30 and 50 across Europe (overall and individually for Germany, France, the UK and Italy) and North America (the United States and Canada) based on the GLOBOCAN 2022 database. Using risk estimates from meta-analyses (2020-2023), we derived the ages at which individuals with diabetes or metabolic syndrome reach the same CRC risk as the average-risk population at age 50 (aCR

resultsIndividuals with diabetes were estimated to reach aCR

conclusionsPeople with diabetes or metabolic syndrome reach risk levels comparable to the average risk population three to four years earlier. Our results offer empirical guidance for defining risk-adapted starting ages of CRC screening for these high-risk groups.
