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

Despite the public awareness of colorectal cancer screening with more and more early premalignant or malignant lesions detected, surgeons still face the challenges of operating for a patient suffering from locally advanced rectal carcinoma which required pelvic exenterations, and surgical outcomes mostly influenced by margin status, adjuvant chemotherapy, positive lymph nodes and liver metastasis, etc. Open pelvic exenteration has been the adopted approach in the past and laparoscopic surgery is another option in expert centers.
