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

This case report describes the laparoscopic technique of infrapyloric lymph node dissection as part of a complete mesocolic excision (CME) for right-sided colon cancer. While controversial and not routinely performed, this extended dissection is indicated in the presence of specific risk factors for nodal metastasis, such as elevated CEA (> 17 ng/ml) and obstructive symptoms, as presented in our 88-year-old patient. The article outlines the key surgical steps to safely clear the infrapyloric region, emphasizing ligation of the right gastroepiploic vessels and meticulous dissection to minimize bleeding and chyle leakage.
