The efficiency and safety of modified tissue-selecting therapy stapler combined with complete anal canal epithelial preservation operation in circumferential mixed hemorrhoids: a randomized controlled trial.
Trial report 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 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 study aimed to explore the efficiency and safety of modified tissue-selecting therapy stapler combined with complete anal canal epithelial preservation operation (M-TST-CACP) in the treatment of circumferential mixed hemorrhoids.
methodsThis was a single-center, statistical analyst-blinded, randomized controlled trial (RCT). A total of 306 patients were finally included for analysis. The efficiency (efficacy, recurrence, anal smoothness, quality of life, and wound healing time) and safety (anal incontinence, pain level, anal stenosis, urinary retention, perianal edema, and postoperative bleeding) were evaluated. The statistical difference in continuous data between M-TST-CACP group and procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (PPH) group was compared using t-test or Mann-Whitney U test. The statistical difference in counting data between the two groups were compared using Pearson χ
resultsM-TST-CACP group showed a higher cure rate (6 months: 74.51% vs. 64.71%, P = 0.044), lower recurrence (6 months: 0% vs. 4.58%, P = 0.015; 12 months: 0.65% vs. 5.88%, P = 0.010), lower anal incontinence score (1 month: 1.29 ± 1.17 vs. 1.93 ± 1.33; 3 months: 1.07 ± 0.87 vs. 1.59 ± 1.01; 6 months: 0.58 ± 0.61 vs. 1.00 ± 0.90; all P < 0.001), and lower rate of anal stenosis (1 month: 0% vs. 7.84%; 3 months: 0% vs. 9.80%; both P < 0.001) than the PPH group.
conclusionsM-TST-CACP had better efficiency and safety than the PPH, which could be a reasonable adoption for the surgeons to treat circumferential mixed hemorrhoids.
