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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesLiterature demonstrates that colorectal cancer is nowadays one of the most common malignancies. Laparoscopy and robotic surgery are progressively gaining popularity in the treatment of colorectal tumors. Complete mesocolic excision and central vascular ligation have been widely adopted with encouraging results in terms of an improvement of overall survival, but some studies in the literature seem to demonstrate a higher morbidity rate.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective study from 01/01/2010 to 30/04/2019 on a series of 250 patients, 155 males (62%) and 95 females (38%) who underwent right colectomy with minimally invasive approach, complete mesocolic excision, central vascular ligation, and intracorporeal anastomosis.

resultsNo perioperative mortality occurred. Postoperative morbidity rate was 6%, including 10 cases of anastomotic leak (5%). Conversion rate was 2.5%. Mean hospital stay was 6 days (range, 4-25 days). Mean operative time was 70 minutes (range, 50-130 minutes). No cases of duodenal or pancreatic damages, no chronic pain or diarrhea, and no severe alteration of bowel function were recorded. We observed only 3 cases of transient delayed gastric emptying.

conclusionsLaparoscopic right colectomy with complete mesocolic excision, central vascular ligation and intracorporeal anastomosis leads to encouraging oncological mid- and long-term outcomes with low complications rates.
