Short-term outcomes of colorectal cancer surgery in patients with dialysis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Langenbeck's archives of surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeThis systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effect of dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (CKD) on postoperative complications in colorectal cancer surgery.
methodsIn April 2023, we systematically searched PubMed, the Cochrane library, and Ovid for relevant studies on short-term outcomes of colorectal cancer surgery in patients with dialysis and analyzed the findings from these studies for meta-analysis.
resultsOur systematic and meta-analysis review identified seven studies involving 50713 patients. We showed that the dialysis group had higher rates of mortality (OR = 4.12, 95%CI: 2.75-6.20, P < 0.001), cardiac complications (OR = 2.45, 95%CI: 1.88-3.21, P < 0.001), and pneumonia (OR = 2.68, 95%CI: 1.83-3.93, P < 0.001). On the other hand, there were no differences in superficial/deep surgical site infection (SSI) (odds ratio [OR] = 1.17, 95%CI: 0.90-1.53, P = 0.230) and organ/space SSI (OR = 1.35, 95%CI: 1.00-1.82, P = 0.053) between the dialysis group and non-dialysis group.
conclusionOur meta-analysis showed that dialysis-dependent CKD was associated with higher rates of mortality, cardiac complications, and pneumonia after colorectal cancer surgery. However, the limitations of this meta-analysis should be taken into consideration when interpreting the results.
