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
Advanced splenic flexure tumors are uncommon and have a higher risk of relapse. To ensure that the resection includes the entire area of lymphatic drainage with a complete mesocolic excision (CME), a left extended colectomy is needed. In peritoneal carcinomatosis, there is often extensive involvement of the sigma and splenic flexure of the colon. In many instances, total colectomies are chosen for these patients, even when a significant portion of the colon could be preserved. The potential impact on quality of life after splenic flexure colon resection is discussed, as well as the importance of anatomical knowledge and expertise in performing this type of surgery. Overall, this work presents a modified technique that aims to improve the outcomes and quality of life for patients with splenic flexure colon cancer. Creating a tension-free anastomosis after extended left-sided colorectal resection is challenging. There is a negative impact on quality of life when an ileorectal anastomosis is created. The colorectal anastomosis performed after modified Rosi-Cahill or Deloyers' technique allows reduced small bowel bacterial overgrowth, achieves better water and sodium absorption, and altogether permits improved stool consistency. There are potential advantages of the Rosi-Cahill technique over other popular options such as Deloyers' procedure as there is no torsion of the ileocolic vessels and no mesenteric windows. A video was recorded showing a potential pitfall during Deloyers' technique resulting in the creation of a mesenteric window. The proper rotation of the colon during the modified Rosi-Cahill procedure was also filmed. Overall, this work presents a modified technique for reconstruction after left extended colectomy that aims to improve the outcomes and quality of life for patients with splenic flexure colon cancer.
