Review in International journal of colorectal disease, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

purposeIn colon cancer (CC), nodal involvement is the main prognostic factor following potentially curative (R0) resection. The purpose of this study was to examine data from the literature to provide an up-to-date analysis of the management of nodal disease with special reference to laparoscopic treatment.

methodsMEDLINE and EMBASE databases were searched for potentially eligible studies published in English up to July 15, 2014.

resultsIn CC, nodal involvement is a frequent event and represents the main risk of cancer recurrence. Node negative patients recur in 10-30 % of cases most likely due to underdiagnosed or undertreated nodal disease. Extended colonic resections (complete mesocolic excision with central vascular ligation; D3 lymphadenectomy) provides a survival benefit and better local control. Sentinel lymph node mapping in addition to standard surgical resection represents an option for improving staging of clinical node negative patients. Both extended resection and sentinel lymph node mapping are feasible in a laparoscopic setting.

conclusionsBoth extended colonic resection and sentinel lymph node mapping should play a role in the laparoscopic treatment of CC with the purpose of improving control and staging of nodal disease.
