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

backgroundCervical anastomotic leakage (CAL) is one of the most common complications that occur minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE). It is associated with high postoperative mortality. Some risk factors still remained controversial and so accurate prediction of risk groups for CAL remained very difficult. This study aimed to identify the risk factors of CAL after McKeown MIE to predict the accuracy of the technique as early as possible. MATERIAL AND

methodsA total of 129 patients with esophageal cancer who underwent McKeown MIE at the Department of Thoracic Surgery, the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University, between January 2018 and June 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for CAL and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to predict the accuracy for each quantitative data variable and determine the cutoff value.

resultsThere were statistically significant differences between Group CAL and Group NCAL in FEV
