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

purposeThe textbook outcome (TBO), a multidimensional indicator that reflects an optimal perioperative course, has emerged as a significant prognostic variable in surgical oncology. Our study aimed to assess the occurrence and determinants of TBO following minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) for cancer.

methodsA total of 945 patients who had undergone MIE at two high-volume centers between 2008 and 2022 were analyzed. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was applied to identify the independent predictors of TBO. The potential selection bias associated with choosing between different MIE techniques-namely, robotic esophagectomy (RE) and video-assisted thoracoscopic esophagectomy (VATE)-was addressed by applying inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW).

resultsTBO was realized in 46.6% of cases (

conclusionTBO was realized in 46.6% of the patients who underwent MIE for cancer. Patients with a lower CCI and those who received RE were more likely to achieve TBO.
