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

objectiveTo analyze the gastrointestinal function and prognostic value of tumor markers (TMs) in patients with laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer (LRRCC).

methodsThe research population of this retrospective study comprised 141 patients with CC who received treatment in the Zhongshan Hospital of Xiamen University between July 2017 and August 2018, including 74 cases (observation group, OG) treated with LRRCC and 67 cases (control group, CG) undergoing open surgery (OS). Postoperative gastrointestinal function and complications were recorded. Besides, alterations in serum TMs carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), and the 3-years survival of patients were observed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to determine the prognostic value of TMs. Risk factors affecting the prognosis of LRRCC patients were analyzed by the Cox regression model.

resultsSignificantly higher levels of motilin (MOT) and gastrin (GT) were determined in OG compared with CG. The two groups showed no notable difference in the postoperative complication rate. Postoperative serum CEA and CA199 levels were obviously lower in OG as compared with CG. A higher 3-year survival rate was determined in OG. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUCs) of CEA and CA19-9 levels in predicting patients' 3-year survival were 0.826 and 0.867, respectively. According to the Cox regression analysis, tumor diameter, lymph node involvement, TNM staging, vascular invasion, CEA, and CA19-9 were independent risk factors for poor prognosis of LRRCC patients.

conclusionsLRRCC is well-tolerated by patients with CC and contributes to favorable outcomes. Besides, CEA and CA19-9, the two TMs, may be candidate prognostic markers for patients undergoing LRRCC.
