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

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the risk factors for postoperative complications following liver resection for colorectal cancer liver metastases. Patients who underwent hepatic resection for colorectal cancer liver metastases were stratified according to chemotherapy administration and body mass index (BMI) to eliminate potential confounding factors. A univariate analysis was conducted to identify potential risk factors for postoperative complications following liver resection. Variables that exhibited a potential association were evaluated by multivariable logistic regression analysis to identify those independently associated with postoperative morbidity. Between January 2012 and March 2012, 100 patients underwent hepatic resection for liver metastases from colorectal carcinoma at the Treviso Regional Hospital (Treviso, Italy) and at the Regina Elena National Cancer Institute (Rome, Italy). Of the 100 patients, 61 received preoperative oxaliplatin- or irinotecan-based chemotherapy. A total of 25 the patients had a BMI of ≥28 kg/m
