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

According to recent clinical practice guidelines, enhanced recovery programs (ERP) have been practiced to improve surgical outcomes and decrease cost. However, these are still opposed by the traditional measures in the treatment of colorectal carcinoma that is still practiced with the concept of protection of anastomosis and decrease postoperative complications. The aim of this study was to report our experience in ERP in elective open left side colonic carcinoma surgery in comparison with the conventional perioperative care. The current prospective multicenter randomized controlled study included a total of 80 adult patients with left side colonic cancer who were eligible for elective colonic resection. Included patients were randomly divided into two equal groups: group (A) where conventional perioperative care was performed and group (B) where ERP were applied. Follow-up was designed for at least 1 month to evaluate and compare hospital stay and postoperative complications. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups as regards demographic data and preoperative comorbidities. There were statistically significant less pain (
