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
Anastomotic leakage (AL) following low anterior resection (LAR) for rectal cancer is a major complication. While most reports focus on the closure of AL using over-the-scope clip (OTSC), few reports are available on the use of through-the-scope clip (TTSC). This is because TTSC is not typically designed for full-thickness closure, unlike OTSC. However, a MANTIS clip, categorized as TTSC, is indicated for full-thickness closure. A 73-year-old man diagnosed with AL 7 days postoperatively following laparoscopic LAR underwent laparoscopic drainage and ileostomy the next day. Although the drainage led to the shrinkage of the fistula, it persisted even after 2 months. Consequently, the fistula orifice was closed using a MANTIS clip under colonoscopy and radiography. Two days later, the patient was discharged. The drain was withdrawn cautiously to prevent residual fistula and removed completely on day 29. This report highlights our experience in using a MANTIS clip for AL following LAR.
