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

purposeCytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have become standard of care for many peritoneal malignancies in selected patients. Nevertheless, this aggressive treatment strategy is associated with significant major morbidity. The aim of the present study is to analyze the re-operation rate and clinical outcome following CRS and HIPEC. PATIENTS AND

methodsIn the present study, prospectively documented data of 474 consecutive patients treated with CRS and HIPEC between February 2011 and December 2015 in a high-volume certified reference center for peritoneal malignancies in Germany have been retrospectively analyzed.

resultsThe re-operation rate was 14.5%. The most frequent reasons for revisional surgery were fascial dehiscence, intraabdominal hemorrhage, and anastomotic leak. Most complications occurred between postoperative day 7 and 9. However, postoperative bleeding was more common within the first 5 days after surgery. The overall in-hospital mortality rate was 2.1% for all patients and 10% after revisional surgery.

conclusionsCRS and HIPEC are associated with an acceptable re-operation rate and low mortality rate. Most frequently, re-operations are performed on 7-9 days after initial surgery due to fascial dehiscence, pancreatitis, or anastomotic leak. Postoperative bleedings are more common within the first 5 days after surgery.
