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

backgroundSynchronous isolated external iliac lymph node metastasis of ascending colon cancer is extremely rare, and its treatment strategy has not been established. In this report, we present a case of long-term survival after surgical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy for ascending colon cancer with synchronous isolated right external iliac lymph node metastasis. CLINICAL CASE: A 65-year-old woman with anorexia and anemia was referred to our hospital. Colonoscopy and computed tomography revealed a three-quarter circumferential type 2 tumor from the cecum to the ascending colon, along with regional and right external iliac lymph node swelling. We diagnosed ascending colon cancer with right external iliac artery lymph node metastasis. An open right hemicolectomy with D3 and right external iliac lymph node dissections were performed. Results of histopathological examination showed that both lymph nodes were metastasized from ascending colon cancer. The patient received eight courses of capecitabine and oxaliplatin therapy as adjuvant chemotherapy. At 60 months after surgery, the woman has not had a recurrence.

conclusionsSurgical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy may be an effective treatment strategy for synchronous isolated right external iliac lymph node metastases from ascending colon cancer.
