Geographic and Demographic Disparities in Receipt of Treatment for Early-Onset Colorectal Cancer.
Article in Cancer control : journal of the Moffitt Cancer Center. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
PurposeTo examine disparities in receipt of the first course of treatment modality used among individuals diagnosed with early-onset colorectal cancer, focusing on sex, race/ethnicity, and rurality differences.MethodsWe conducted a cross-sectional analysis utilizing national data from the 2006-2020 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program among adults aged 20-49. Key factors included sex, race/ethnicity, and rurality. Our main outcomes were whether patients started treatment, and which types they received. Multivariable logistic regression models were performed.ResultsOf total 82,427 patients, males (54.9%, p=0.097), racial minorities (0.8%-23.3%, p<0.001), and patients in all urban areas (70.7%; p<0.001) had higher rates of no treatment. Adjusted analysis showed that male patients had16%-19% lower odds of receiving surgery regardless of rurality (p<0.05) compared with female patients. In all/mostly urban areas, Black patients were found to had 17%-41% lower odds of receiving any treatment modalities (p<0.05); Hispanic patients had 11%-24% lower odds of receiving any treatment modalities (mostly urban: OR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.60-0.95) or surgery alone (all urban: OR, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.84-0.95) compared with White patients. In rural areas, 33% and 34% lower odds of receiving radiation treatment were found among American Indian (AI)/Alaska Native (AN) (OR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.46-0.98) and Asian/Pacific Islander (PI) patients (OR, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.44-0.99) compared with White patients, respectively.ConclusionsDisparities in receipt of surgery treatment were observed in males regardless of rurality. Black and Hispanic patients in urban areas had lower treatment use, while AI/AN and Asian/PI patients in rural areas were less likely to start radiation. Targeted approaches for specific groups are needed.
