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

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify factors associated with conversion to an open procedure during laparoscopic colectomy in patients with body mass index (BMI) ≥25 kg/m Methods: In a multicenter cohort study conducted under the auspices of the Japan Society of Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery, clinicopathological data were examined for 887 patients with BMI ≥25 kg/m Results: Among the 887 patients who underwent laparoscopic colectomy, 31 patients (3.5%) required conversion to an open procedure. In multivariate analysis, preoperative BMI ≥27.5 kg/m Conclusions: In obese patients with the factors identified in this study, surgeons should consider the possibility of conversion to open surgery. Long-term outcomes in patients with BMI ≥25 kg/m
