Short-term and long-term outcomes of laparoscopic
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundLaparoscopic ileocolic resection (LICR) is the preferred surgical approach for primary ileocolic Crohn's disease (CD) because it has greater recovery benefits than open ICR (OICR).
aimTo compare short- and long-term outcomes in patients who underwent LICR and OICR.
methodsPatients who underwent ICR for primary CD from 2006 to 2017 at a single tertiary center specializing in CD were included. Patients who underwent LICR and OICR were subjected to propensity-score matching analysis. Patients were propensity-score matched 1:1 by factors potentially associated with 30-d perioperative morbidity. These included demographic characteristics and disease- and treatment-related variables. Factors were compared using univariate and multivariate analyses. Long-term surgical recurrence-free survival (SRFS) in the two groups was determined by the Kaplan-Meier method and compared by the log-rank test.
resultsDuring the study period, 348 patients underwent ICR, 211 by the open approach and 137 laparoscopically. Propensity-score matching yielded 102 pairs of patients. The rate of postoperative complication was significantly lower (14%
conclusionLICR yielded better short-term outcomes and postoperative recovery than OICR, with no differences in long-term outcomes. LICR may provide greater benefits in selected patients with primary CD.
