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
Left-sided malignant colonic obstruction is one of the most difficult clinical problems; however, no studies compared the two most common used surgical approach laparoscopic and open colorectomy till now. The purpose of this study was to investigate the short- and long-term outcomes of laparoscopy and open colorectomy for left-sided malignant colonic obstruction. A total of 193 colorectal carcinoma patients (55 patients who underwent laparoscopic colorectomy and 138 who underwent open colorectomy) with left-sided colonic obstruction and surgical therapy, between May 2007 and March 2012, are included in the study. The short-term and long-term outcomes including curative resection rate, hospital stay time, complications, 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates and recurrence rate, as well as recurrence-free survival rate were analyzed retrospectively. No significant difference was found between the laparoscopic and open groups about the short-term outcomes, such as the curative resection rate (81.82 vs. 78.99%, P=0.658), hospital stay time (24.22±17.09 vs. 24.19±14.76 day, P=0.990), the overall and respective complications (32.73 vs. 39.63%, P=0.674). Long-term outcomes, including 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates (P=0.518), recurrence rates (P=0.320), and recurrence-free survival rates (P=0.988), were also indicated no significant differences between the two patient groups. Laparoscopy might not have advantages on left-sided malignant colonic obstruction compared with open colorectal resection in both short-term and long-term outcomes.
