Short- and Long-Term Outcomes of Totally Versus Hybrid Minimally Invasive Ivor Lewis Oesophagectomy for Oesophageal Cancer: A Propensity Score-Matched Analysis.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Few objective studies have compared totally minimally invasive Ivor Lewis oesophagectomy with hybrid procedure. Here we investigated whether the choice between totally and hybrid minimally invasive Ivor Lewis oesophagectomy influenced short-term outcomes and long-term patient survival. Methods: Patients who underwent totally or hybrid minimally invasive Ivor Lewis oesophagectomy between January 2014 and December 2017 were propensity score matched in a 1:1 ratio. The short- and long-term outcomes between the two groups were compared before and after matching. Results: Of 138 totally and 156 hybrid minimally invasive oesophagectomy patients were eligible, 104 patients from each group were propensity score matched. Totally minimally invasive oesophagectomy was associated significantly with less blood loss (median(IQR) 100(60-150) vs 120(120-200) ml respectively; P < 0.001), pneumonia (13.5 vs 25.0%; P = 0.035), pleural effusion (3.8 vs 13.5%; P = 0.014), and chest drainage (7.5(6-9) vs 8(7-9) days; P = 0.009) than hybrid procedure. There was no significant difference in 3-year overall survival rate and 3-year disease-free survival rate between the two group. Conclusions: Totally minimally invasive Ivor Lewis oesophagectomy may improve short-term outcomes and specifically reduce the incidence of pulmonary complications compared with hybrid procedure. The long-term overall survival and disease-free survival rates between the two groups were similar.
