The impact of sarcopenia on postoperative complications and survival outcomes after robotic colorectal cancer surgery: a study based on single-center propensity score matching.
Article in Journal of robotic surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Sarcopenia is more common in elderly individuals and is often associated with functional limitations, which can affect postoperative clinical efficacy and mortality rates in cancer surgery. Yet, the precise effects of sarcopenia on individuals receiving robotic colorectal cancer surgery (RCRC) remain insufficiently explored. Our objective was to evaluate the value of preoperative skeletal muscle status on patients receiving RCRC about postoperative complications and long-term prognosis. Data were gathered retrospectively for patients with well-defined conditions. Clinical records of patients who underwent RCRC at a single center between January 2019 and September 2022 were analyzed. Sarcopenia was defined using preoperative computed tomography (CT) body composition analysis of the L3 vertebral level muscle index with cutoff values of < 29 cm
