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

Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging technology has been increasingly utilized in rectal surgery in recent years. As a safe tracer, indocyanine green can facilitate lymph node tracing, assess the blood supply at anastomotic sites, and localize tumour lesions during laparoscopic surgery, thereby resulting in favourable outcomes. This technology helps surgeons to achieve more precise diagnoses and treatments in laparoscopic procedures, thus ultimately benefiting patients. However, the current application of indocyanine green fluorescence imaging technology still lacks standardized regulations, and certain effects remain contentious. This study provides a comprehensive review of the application of indocyanine green in laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer based on the pertinent literature.
