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

backgroundThe aim of this study was to investigate the clinical effects of repairing large defects using the double circular suturing technique (DCST) after resection of abdominal wall tumor.

methodsThe clinical data of 62 patients (25 men, 37 women; average age 41.7±22.4 years) who underwent DCST between October 2010 and November 2018 for the repair of large abdominal wall defects with anti-adhesion underlay mesh after resection of abdominal wall tumor were retrospectively analyzed. The maximum diameter of abdominal wall defect after resection of abdominal wall tumor was 10.4±5.6 cm. The course of disease was 1-341 months, and the average was 32.4 months. Operative time, postoperative hospitalization time, perioperative complications, tumor recurrence

resultsAll 62 operations were completed successfully. The operative time was 73.2±31.4 minutes, and the mean postoperative hospitalization time was 9.6 days (range, 2-20 days). In total, 54 patients were followed up postoperatively for a median 6.7 years (range, 0.9-9.0 years). Partial splitting of incisions occurred in 2 patients, fat liquefaction of incisions occurred in 3 patients, and chronic pain occurred in 4 patients. No tumor

conclusionsWith simple operations, short procedure time, few complications, low tumor recurrence rate, and low incidence of postoperative chronic pain, application of DCST in the repair of large abdominal wall defects is effective after resection of abdominal wall tumor.
