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
Although well established, laparoscopic surgery for ascending colon cancer is a difficult procedure due to the presence of many blood vessels requiring treatment and the need for sufficient mobilization to extract the right colon through a small laparotomy. This is the first study to investigate the adequacy of vascular ligation and bowel mobilization for laparoscopic resection of ascending colon cancer and extracorporeal reconstruction. This retrospective study included 103 consecutive patients who underwent laparoscopic colectomy for ascending colon cancer from 2015 to 2022 at the Center Hospital of the National Center for Global Health and Medicine. We analyzed correlations between clinicopathological factors and vessels ligation or the mobilization range. The strongest factor correlated with vascular ligation was the distance from the Bauhin valve to the distal edge of the tumor (Length B). These lengths were significantly longer in the vascular ligated group (the right colic artery (RCA): 81 mm; the accessory right colic vein (ARCV): 85 mm; right branch of the middle colic artery (MCA-rt): 106.5 mm) than in the nonligated group (50 mm, 43 mm, 50 mm,
