Preoperative management in octogenarian patients with rectal cancer.
Review in Heliyon, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: In recent years, the rise in average lifespan has been linked to an increase in the occurrence of diseases associated with aging worldwide. Rectal tumors often occur in elderly patients. Methods: Between January and August 2024, 6 experts in colorectal cancer met to develop an algorithm to organize the interdisciplinary and multimodal preoperative approaches in the octogenarian population with rectal cancer. To develop the algorithm, we conducted a straightforward search within the PubMed database and also reviewed the citations of the most pertinent articles we discovered. The quality of the methods used in the final selection of 76 sources was evaluated, every single source was scrutinized and analyzed, and a team of six experts created an algorithm. Results: An algorithm for preoperative management of octogenarian patients with rectal cancer was created to encapsulate essential information and provide a contemporary resource for physicians, surgeons, physiotherapists, and nutritionists to utilize in optimal clinical practice. Conclusions: Octogenarian patients with rectal cancer are special-character groups and require specific preoperative management to better the surgical outcome.
