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

backgroundRecently, complete laparoscopic procedures with intracorporeal reconstruction were performed in laparoscopic colectomies; however, they were scarcely reported in left-side colectomies because of the anatomical reasons. Since the descending colon is extensively fixed to the retroperitoneum, the dissection range required for resection cannot always be enough for a safe extracorporeal anastomosis. We devised an intracorporeal hemi-hand-sewn (IC-HHS) technique for end-to-end anastomosis in laparoscopic left-side colectomies. MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 11 patients underwent IC-HHS anastomosis for the treatment of colon cancer around the sigmoid-descending (SD) junction. The posterior wall of the anastomosis was constructed with a linear stapler and subsequently, the anterior wall was sutured with an intracorporeal hand-sewn technique. Perioperative outcomes were evaluated.

resultsIC-HHS reconstruction between the descending colon and sigmoid colon was performed in 11 cases. There were six males and five females with an average age of 66.5 years. The average body mass index was 26.1 kg/m

conclusionsIC-HHS anastomosis was successfully performed for colon cancer around the SD junction with acceptable perioperative outcomes and there were no procedure-related complications, indicating its feasibility. IC-HHS anastomosis could eliminate unnecessary splenic flexure mobilization in left-side colectomies. IC-HHS anastomosis can be an optional reconstruction for totally laparoscopic colectomies.
