Development of The American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons' Rectal Cancer Surgery Checklist.

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
backgroundThere is excellent evidence that surgical safety checklists contribute to decreased morbidity and mortality.
objectiveThe purpose of this study was to develop a surgical checklist composed of the key phases of care for patients with rectal cancer.
designA consensus-oriented decision-making model involving iterative input from subject matter experts under the auspices of The American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons was designed. SETTINGS: The study was conducted through meetings and discussion to consensus. PATIENTS: Patient data were extracted from an initial literature review.
main outcome measuresThe checklist was measured by its ability to improve care in complex rectal surgery cases by reducing the possibility of omission through the division of treatment into 3 distinct phases.
resultsThe process generated a 25-item checklist covering the spectrum of care for patients with rectal cancer who were undergoing surgery. LIMITATIONS: The study was limited by its lack of prospective validation.
conclusionsThe American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons rectal cancer surgery checklist is composed of the essential elements of preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative care that must be addressed during the surgical treatment of patients with rectal cancer.
