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

In the therapeutic algorithm for treatment of rectal cancer, primarily in the lower two-thirds of the rectum, local excision currently plays a limited role, but clearly adheres to diagnostic, oncologic, and technical principles. This should be considered particularly against the background that aspects of maintaining function and the associated positive effects on quality of life, based on expanding knowledge of the complications of radical interventions and their ramifications, have gained in importance. The following addresses the oncologic-histologic, clinical-diagnostic, and technical principles of local excision as well as the results for patients treated according to the devised diagnostic/therapeutic algorithm and included in the Erlanger Register of Colorectal Cancer (ERCRC).
