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

Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare congenital condition, which is characterized by abnormal placement of the thoracic and abdominal organs. The incidence of this condition is estimated to be from 1/8000 to 1/25,000. There have been minimal reports on SIT patients with esophageal cancer. In this report, we discuss a patient with SIT complicated by middle and lower esophageal cancer who underwent laparoscopic and thoracoscopic esophagectomy with intrathoracic anastomosis, and provide useful information with regards to treatment of this rare condition.
