Special Considerations of Anastomotic Leak in Patients with Rectal Cancer.
Review in Clinics in colon and rectal surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Anastomotic leak in patients with rectal cancer has the potential to cause worse oncologic outcomes in addition to major morbidity and mortality risk of this dreaded complication. Anatomic location of the rectal cancer determines the ability to perform a restorative operation and the height of the anastomosis in relation to the anal canal. Clinical staging dictates the need for neoadjuvant treatment (such as chemotherapy and radiation) which may also contribute to anastomotic leak risk. In addition to oncologic outcomes, anastomotic leak can impact bowel function, the need for permanent stoma, and long-term quality of life. This study will discuss special considerations for anastomotic leak prevention and clinical implications of this complication in patients with rectal cancer.
