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

Cancers of the colon and kidney are common malignancies, however, the occurrence of primary synchronous neoplasms of these two organs is uncommon. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of a laparoscopic radical left nephrectomy and extended right complete mesocolic excision (CME) for a patient with synchronous renal and colon cancers. While a radical nephrectomy has long been the standard of care for a renal malignancy, CME has only recently been used. Combined surgeries provide the patient with various benefits such as decreased hospital stay, less postoperative pain and morbidity, early return to work and better cosmoses.
