A propensity score-matched analysis of advanced energy devices and conventional monopolar device for colorectal cancer surgery: comparison of clinical and oncologic outcomes.

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 safety, efficiency, and versatility of novel surgical energy devices have been proved by recent studies. This study aims to investigate the impact of surgical energy devices on operative and oncologic outcomes of minimally invasive colorectal cancer surgery. Methods: The study group included 80 patients who underwent minimally invasive colorectal cancer surgery with a conventional monopolar device and 217 patients with advanced surgical energy devices between August 2015 and December 2017. The propensity score matching for tumor lesion, preoperative level of CEA, and operation technique produced 63 matched pairs. Results: In patient characteristics, there was no significant difference between the groups after the propensity score matching. The amount of blood loss (72 mL Conclusion: The use of surgical energy devices based on surgeons' preference did not show significant impact on operative and long-term outcomes compared with conventional monopolar devices in minimally invasive colorectal cancer surgery.
