Association of resection margin distance with anastomotic recurrence in stage I-III colon cancer: data from the National Colorectal Cancer Cohort (NCRCC) study in China.
Article in International journal of colorectal disease, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04074538 (The National Colorectal Cancer Cohort Study-Precision Medical Research in Colorectal Cancer), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
purposeFew studies have focused on anastomotic recurrence (AR) in colon cancer. This study aimed to clarify the association of resection margin distance with AR and compare the prognosis with nonanastomotic local recurrence (NAR).
methodsThis retrospective cohort study included the clinical data of patients who underwent radical colon cancer surgery between January 1, 2009, and December 31, 2019.
resultsA total of 1958 colon cancer patients were included in the study. 34 of whom (1.7%) had AR and 105 of whom (5.4%) had NAR. Multivariate analysis revealed that the lower distal resection margin distance, advanced N stage, and number of lymph nodes dissected were risk factors for AR. In the proximal resection margin, the risk of AR was lowest at a distance of 6 cm or greater, with a 3-year rate of 1.3%. In the distal resection margin, the 3-year AR risk increased rapidly if the distance was less than 3 cm. The prognosis of patients in the AR group was similar to that of patients in the NAR group, regardless of synchronous distant metastases. Furthermore, the radical surgery rate for AR was significantly higher than that for NAR, but the prognosis of AR was comparable to that of NAR.
conclusionsThe distal resection margin distance, advanced N stage, and less number of lymph nodes dissected are associated with AR of colon cancer. The prognosis of patients with AR was similar to that of patients with NAR.
