Transanal Total Mesorectal Excision: Description of the Technique.
Review in Clinics in colon and rectal surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Surgery remains the gold standard for the treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer. The most effective approach to reduce locoregional recurrence is total mesorectal excision (TME). However, obtaining an optimal TME is demanding, especially in low rectal tumors and anatomically unfavorable pelvis. Transanal TME (taTME) was developed to facilitate low pelvis dissection and potentially provide optimal outcomes for oncologic resection. Current studies have reported satisfactory short-term outcomes. However, taTME is a technically challenging procedure and must be learned in an appropriate training process to allow for a safe implementation. Previous experience in laparoscopic and transanal surgery is strongly recommended. In this work, we provide a detailed discussion of the technique, based on the realization of more than 400 taTME interventions.
