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

Locally recurrent rectal cancer (LRRC) refers to the lesions that appear in the pelvic cavity and perineum with the same pathological type as the primary tumor after radical operation of rectal cancer, excluding other distant metastases such as liver, lung, and bone. Radical surgical resection in such patients is a central element in improving quality of life andsurvival. In this paper, we report the case of a patient who was admitted to our hospital with a recurrence of ulcerated moderately differentiated carcinoma of the lower rectum with vaginal involvement after comprehensive treatment. After discussion by a multidisciplinary team, a transsacral prone longitudinal incision combined with bilateral gluteus maximus "kite" flap padding was used to remove the tumor tissue completely, and the postoperative area healed well, which improved the patient's quality of life and increased her survival rate.
