Primary tumor sidedness is not prognostic factor in resectable colorectal cancer liver metastasis: a retrospective observational cohort study.

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
Purpose: Right-sided tumors have been reported to have a poorer survival rate than left-sided tumors; however, there remains debate regarding whether sidedness is an independent prognostic factor in colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM). This study aimed to assess the impact of sidedness on prognosis in resectable CRLM and to identify prognostic factors. Methods: Patients who underwent liver resection for CRLM at Samsung Medical Center from January 2008 to December 2021 were included in the investigation. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed, and prognostic factors were identified. Results: A total of 497 patients were included in the study, with 106 on the right side and 391 on the left side. The right-sided group had a higher percentage of synchronous tumors (90.6% Conclusion: In resectable CRLM, there was no difference in prognosis based on sidedness. CEA level, synchronous tumor, and maximum tumor size of hepatic metastasis were identified as prognostic factors.
