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

backgroundTransanal minimally invasive surgery is a combination of single-port surgery and transanal surgery and was initially developed as a treatment for rectal tumors. Recently, this approach has also been used for more advanced or extended pelvic surgery.

methodsWe present a surgical video of combined laparoscopic and transperineal endoscopic total pelvic exenteration performed in a male patient with recurrent rectal cancer and discuss the pros and cons of this approach.

resultsThe operating time was 775 min and the operative blood loss was 485 ml. The pathology was recurrent adenocarcinoma invading the prostate and urethra with negative surgical margins. The postoperative course was uneventful except for a urinary tract infection that was treated with antibiotics.

conclusionsThe transanal/perineal endoscopic approach may have some benefits for extended pelvic surgery for recurrent rectal cancer.
