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

purposeLaparoscopic surgery for colon cancer has widely accepted as safe and effective. However, few studies report outcomes on robotic right colon resection with confectioning of the intracorporeal ileocolic anastomosis. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and safety of robotic right colon resection with intracorporeal ileocolic anastomosis (RRCIA) in patients with cancer.

methodsData of consecutive series of 20 patients undergoing RRCIA between June 2011 and May 2012 at our institution were prospectively collected in order to evaluate surgical and oncological short-term outcomes.

resultsSeven males and 13 females were operated of RRCIA during the study period. Mean age is 66.7 years. The mean overall operative time was 327.5 min (255-485), and the robot time was 286 min (range 225-440 min). No conversion to open or laparoscopy occurred. The mean specimen length was 32.7 cm (range 26-44 cm), and the mean number of harvested lymph nodes was 17.6 (range 14-21). During the 30 postoperative days, only one complication occurred, consisting in an infection of surgical specimen extraction wound.

conclusionThe RRCIA is a feasible and safe for patients with right colon cancer, also in terms of intraoperative oncological outcomes.
