Surgical quality improvement programs in Japan and USA: Report from the collaborative projects between Japanese Society of Gastroenterological Surgery and American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program.
Review in Annals of gastroenterological surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
The Japanese Society of Gastroenterological Surgery (JSGS) and the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) have collaboratively developed several clinical projects since 2011 using two nationwide clinical registries with the goal of achieving further improvement of surgical quality in both countries. In this review, the historical viewpoints and the collaboration between JSGS and ACS and their use of nationwide registries [National Clinical Database (NCD) and NSQIP] for research are reviewed. We have carried out a joint project, the 30-day Mortality Risk Model Study and, currently, we are working on several joint projects such as the Morbidity-Mortality Study, Japan-USA Calibration Study, Geriatric Study, and Safety Culture Study as well as Auditing in JSGS/NCD with reference to the NSQIP method. These joint projects will continue to provide us with important information and data to drive improvements in surgical care in both countries. This will also help us to identify any unknown weaknesses in the health-care systems of the USA and Japan.
