The Effect of Complications on Oncological Outcomes of Colorectal Cancer Patients After Primary Surgery: A Propensity Score Matching 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. Cited by 11 papers.
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
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore the oncologic outcomes of complications on colorectal cancer (CRC) patients who underwent primary surgery using a propensity score matching (PSM) analysis. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted from Jan 2011 to Jan 2020 in a clinical center. The overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were compared among the no complications group, the major complications group and the minor complications group. Results: A total of 4250 CRC patients who underwent radical primary surgery were included in the current study. Among them, 927 (21.8%) patients suffered complications. After 1:1 ratio PSM, there were 98 patients in the major complications group and in the minor complications group, and 911 patients in the overall complications group and in the no complications group. There was no significant difference in terms of baseline information after PSM (p>0.05). Complications were independent predictors of OS (p=0.000, HR=1.693, 95% CI=1.476-1.941) and DFS (p=0.000, HR=1.555, 95% CI=1.367-1.768). In terms of specific tumor stage, the no complications group had better OS on all stages (p=0.006) and stage III (p=0.003) CRC than the complications group after PSM. Furthermore, the no complications group had better DFS on all stages (p=0.005) and stage III (p=0.021) CRC than the complications group after PSM. However, there was no significant difference between the minor complications group and the major complications group in different tumor stages (p>0.05). Conclusion: Complications were associated with poor prognosis of CRC and surgeons should be cautious of the adverse events.
