Successfully Resected Isolated Lateral Lymph Node Recurrence in a Patient with T1 Lower Rectal Cancer: Case Report and Literature Review.

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
Lateral lymph node (LLN) metastasis in T1 rectal cancer has an incidence of less than 1%. However, its clinical features are largely uncharted. We report a case of LLN metastasis in T1 rectal cancer and review the relevant literature. A 56-year-old female underwent rectal resection for lower rectal cancer 2 years previously (pT1bN0M0). During follow-up, an elevated tumor marker CA19-9 was documented. Enhanced CT and MRI showed a round shape nodule 2 cm in size on the left side of pelvic wall. PET-CT showed high accumulation of FDG in the same lesion, leading to a diagnosis of isolated LLN recurrence. Because no other site of recurrence was detected, surgical resection of the LLN was performed. Microscopic findings were consistent with metastatic lymph node originating from the recent rectal cancer. Adjuvant chemotherapy for six months was given, and patient remains free of recurrent disease seven months after LLN resection. Although LLN recurrence after surgery for T1 rectal cancer is rare, post-surgical follow-up should not be omitted. When LLN metastasis is suspected on CT, MRI and/or PET-CT will be recommended. Surgical resection of LLN metastasis in patients with T1 rectal cancer may lead to favorable outcomes, when recurrence in other areas is not observed.
