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

backgroundArm-implanted totally implantable venous access devices (peripherally inserted central catheter port) have become an important vascular access for colorectal cancer chemotherapy, but traditional anatomical landmark positioning techniques have issues with inaccurate positioning and high complication rates.

aimTo evaluate the clinical value of image pre-measurement combined with intracavitary electrocardiogram (IC-ECG) positioning technology in arm port implantation for colorectal cancer patients.

methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on 216 colorectal cancer patients who received arm port implantation in our hospital from January 2024 to December 2024. Patients were divided into an experimental group (image pre-measurement combined with IC-ECG positioning technology,

resultsThe experimental group demonstrated superior outcomes compared to the control group across all key measures. Technical success rate was higher (98.4%

conclusionImage pre-measurement combined with intracavitary electrocardiogram positioning technology in arm port implantation for colorectal cancer patients can significantly improve catheter tip positioning accuracy, reduce operation time and X-ray exposure.
