A blueprint for creating an early-onset colorectal cancer program based on experiences from 7 clinical centers across the United States and Canada.
Article in The oncologist, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 individuals diagnosed with colorectal cancer under the age of 50, often referred to as early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC), has risen worldwide. The EOCRC patients have unique needs; however, there are no clear guidelines on how to address them. The objective of the present study was to propose a blueprint for EOCRC program development and implementation. MATERIALS AND
methodsA consensual qualitative design was used to frame the present study. Seven leaders of North American EOCRC centers were invited to devise a stepwise blueprint for developing and implementing EOCRC programs. Discussions were transcribed and conceptually organized into a framework. An analysis of documents detailing and describing the services offered within each center was also conducted.
resultsThe analysis was organized around 2 domains: (1) the rationale underlying the creation of EOCRC programs, and (2) the lessons learned from developing and implementing EOCRC programs. Participants agreed that as the EOCRC programs represent innovative initiatives, a program manager who closely monitors the program is core to successful implementation.
conclusionsThis study outlines a 10-step actionable guideline for developing and implementing EOCRC programs aiming at addressing the unmet needs of this growing population.
