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

There is no consensus about the best technique to use for the surgical treatment for large rectal adenomas. The advent of laparoscopic surgery has led to the development of several new methods for the treatment of gastrointestinal tumors. This study was designed to introduce an innovative technique of totally laparoscopic resection with natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) for large rectal adenomas and to assess the feasibility and safety of the technique. Between February 2011 and January 2014, we performed totally laparoscopic resection with NOSE on 18 patients with a large rectal adenoma. This new technique was successful in all 18 patients. The average size of the adenoma was 4.2 cm. Mean operation time was 108.4 min, and mean intraoperative blood loss was 36.6 ml. The mean time to passing of the first flatus was 2.3 days, and the mean postoperative hospital stay was 7.2 days. Only one patient needed analgesics after the operation. All patients were able to walk within the first 2 days. There were no cases of morbidity and recurrence. Totally laparoscopic resection with NOSE appears to be suitable for selected patients with a large adenoma located in mid- or low rectum.
