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

purposeTo date, there have been many studies on postoperative complications and oncologic outcomes, but the findings remain controversial. The purpose of the study was to determine the prognostic value of serum inflammatory markers as pretreatment in curatively resected colorectal cancer. The effects of serum inflammatory marker levels on postoperative morbidity were also examined.

methodsProspectively collected data from 1590 patients with primary sporadic colorectal adenocarcinoma who underwent curative resection between September 2012 and December 2013 at our institution were retrospectively analyzed. White blood cell count (× 10

resultsThe median follow-up period for the 1590 patients was 59 months. The overall postoperative morbidity rate was 24.8%. In multivariate analysis, female sex (P = 0.006), rectal cancer other than colon cancer (P < 0.001), CEA level > 5 ng/ml (P < 0.001), ESR > 27 mm/h (P = 0.014), and a GPS of 1 or 2 (P < 0.001) were independent risk predictors for morbidity. A GPS of 1 or 2 (P < 0.001) and postoperative morbidity (P < 0.001) significantly affected both overall survival and disease-free survival in multivariate analyses.

conclusionsA GPS of 1 or 2 is a significant risk factor for postoperative morbidity and a prognostic factor for long-term survival.
