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
Background: With the accelerating global population aging, the proportion of elderly patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) undergoing laparoscopic radical resection is increasing annually. However, significant individual variations in postoperative hospital stay exist, and convenient clinical prediction tools remain lacking. This study aimed to develop and validate a simplified predictive scoring model for postoperative hospital stay in elderly CRC patients after laparoscopic radical resection. Materials and methods: A total of 205 elderly CRC patients (≥70 years) who underwent laparoscopic radical resection at our hospital from August 2024 to September 2025 were retrospectively included. Baseline characteristics (age, sex, BMI, comorbidities), tumor indicators (location, TNM stage), surgical parameters (operative time, blood loss, stoma creation), preoperative and postoperative blood markers (albumin, hemoglobin, direct bilirubin), perioperative assessments (ASA classification), and postoperative outcomes (30-day complications, hospital stay) were collected. Postoperative hospital stay (excluding delays due to non-medical factors) served as the primary outcome. Univariate linear regression identified potential influencing factors, and multivariate linear regression determined independent risk factors. A predictive scoring model was constructed based on independent factors, with efficacy validated using the coefficient of determination ( Results: The mean postoperative hospital stay was 16.6 ± 5.0 days (range: 9-42 days). multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that 30-day postoperative complications were an independent risk factor for prolonged hospital stay ( Conclusion: The simplified scoring model developed in this study effectively predicts postoperative hospital stay in elderly CRC patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection, providing a practical tool for clinical risk stratification, early intervention, and optimization of healthcare resources.
