Patient-Reported Outcomes in Colorectal Surgery.
Review in Clinics in colon and rectal surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Given the increased life expectancy and improvements in the treatment of colorectal patients, the success of a treatment course can no longer be determined only by objective outcomes. Health care providers ought to take into consideration the impact an intervention will have on the quality of life of patients. Endpoints that take into account the patient's perspective are defined as patient-reported outcomes (PROs). PROs are assessed through patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), usually in the form of questionnaires. PROs are especially important in colorectal surgery, whose procedures can often be associated with some degree of postoperative functional impairment. Several PROMs are available for colorectal surgery patients. However, while some scientific societies have offered recommendations, there is no standardization in the field and PROMs are seldom implemented in clinical practice. The routine use of validated PROMs can guarantee that functional outcomes are followed over time; this way, they can be addressed in case of worsening. This review will provide an overview of the most commonly used PROMs in colorectal surgery, both generic and disease specific, as well as a summary of the available evidence in support of their routine utilization.
