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

purposeSeveral studies have reported the efficacy of near-infrared imaging using indocyanine green in laparoscopic low anterior resection (LAR), but a detailed examination of its fluorescence abnormalities is still insufficient. The purpose of this study was to clarify the incidence of fluorescence abnormalities and to create a new prediction score in laparoscopic LAR.

methodsThis was a retrospective, multicenter study that included patients with rectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic LAR from September 2014 to November 2018.

resultsA total of 336 patients were included. The transection line was changed due to fluorescence abnormalities in 5.4% (18/336) of cases, and the median length of additional resection was 70 mm. Anastomotic leakage of Clavien-Dindo grade ≥ II occurred in 6.0% (20/336). The gender and the intraoperative pre-planned proximal margin (IpPM) were significant factors for fluorescence abnormalities. We devised the fluorescence abnormality prediction score (FAPS) derived from the gender, IpPM, and tumor height from the anal verge (TumorAV). The area under the curve of the FAPS was 0.784 (95% CI: 0.677-0.891). When the cutoff was 4, the sensitivity was 0.833, and the specificity was 0.626. The preoperative pre-planned proximal margin (PpPM) was calculated as follows: PpPM (mm) = 189 (mm) - TumorAV (mm) + 61 × Male (1/0). The proximal margin should be set to be larger than the PpPM to avoid fluorescence abnormalities.

conclusionThe incidence of fluorescence abnormalities in laparoscopic LAR was 5.4%. If the FAPS is used, the PpPM may be set from the viewpoint of the blood perfusion.
