Minimally invasive surgery in the geriatric patient with 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 12 papers.
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
As the global population ages, the number of geriatric patients requiring surgery for colon cancer would inevitably increase. Radical oncological surgery in the elderly colorectal cancer patient has been recognized to be associated with a higher rate of postoperative complications and mortality compared to the young. While less aggressive management options may be reasonable in patients with limited life expectancy and significant comorbidities, many elderly patients have preserved function despite their chronological age. The advances in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) now provide a feasible means of achieving safe oncological treatment for these geriatric patients. This review focuses on the evidence behind MIS in the geriatric patient with colon cancer.
