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 develop and validate a simple prediction model for postoperative anastomotic leakage (AL) in patients with rectal cancer who underwent Dixon surgery by combining preoperative and intraoperative risk factors.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective study on 358 patients who underwent Dixon surgery for rectal cancer in the Affiliated Hospital of Youjiang Medical University for Nationalities (Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China). Based on logistic regression, the prediction model of AL after Dixon surgery was established and verified.

resultsThe incidence of postoperative AL in these patients was 9.2% (33/358). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that age ≥60 years, male, Tumor-Node-Metastasis (TNM) stage ≥IIIa, preoperative obstruction, and the distance from the tumor to the anus ≤7 cm were the risk factors for AL after Dixon surgery, and intraoperative defunctioning stoma was the protective factor for AL after rectal Dixon surgery (all P<0.05). The prediction model construction: Risk score =-4.275 + 0.851 × age + 1.047 × sex + 0.851 × distance + 0.934 × stage + 0.983 × obstruction. The area under receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC-AUC) was 0.762 (95% CI: 0.667-0.856). The best cutoff, sensitivity and specificity were 0.14, 79.60%, and 83.10%, respectively. Hosmer-Lemeshow: X

conclusionsBoth preoperative and intraoperative risk factors were used in the prognostic model. The prediction model established on this basis was well differentiated and highly calibrated, providing a good reference for the clinical prediction model of postoperative AL in rectal cancer patients undergoing Dixon surgery.
