Minimally invasive complete mesocolic excision and central vascular ligation (CME/CVL) for right colon cancer.
Review in Journal of gastrointestinal oncology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Total mesorectal excision (TME) is the standard of care in rectal cancer surgery. Complete mesocolic excision and central vascular ligation (CME and CVL) are surgical concepts that are extrapolated from the principles of TME. Increasingly adopted by surgical units worldwide, laparoscopic CME/CVL for right sided colon cancer is a challenging procedure that requires meticulous dissection by the surgeon and detailed knowledge of the colonic vascular anatomy. This review article addresses the main issues pertaining to this surgical technique and also discusses steps on how to perform this operation safely.
