1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Aim: Minimally invasive surgery for colorectal cancer is increasing globally. However, the safety in older patients have not been thoroughly examined. Methods: Patients with colorectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic or robot-assisted surgery at Kyoto University Hospital and 18 affiliated institutions in Japan that participated in the Kyoto Colorectal Surgery Group between 2018 and 2023 were enrolled. Focusing on patients ≥80 y, we investigated the risk factors for postoperative complications. Results: In total, 7303 patients were enrolled in this study. The mean age was 71 ± 11 y, with 1665 patients (22.8%) ≥80 y old. Older patients (≥80 y) had significantly higher ASA and ECOG-PS scores and more comorbidities including diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), hypertension, heart disease, and cerebrovascular disease than patients ≤79 y old (all Conclusion: In minimally invasive colorectal cancer surgery for older patients (≥80 y old), prioritizing shorter operation time and blood loss control is crucial, especially for patients with rectal cancer because of their high risk of complications.
