Decision-making in emergency colorectal surgery for cancer.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common gastrointestinal (GI) malignancy and the second most common cause of cancer-related death. Emergency presentations constitute about 20% of admissions for CRC. The article discusses the current arguments and evidence that drive decision-making in emergency colorectal surgery for complications (obstruction, perforation, and bleeding) of CRC. The goal of the surgeon is to control in-hospital mortality, local recurrence of CRC, and quality of life. An electronic literature search of the MEDLINE (PubMed) database, Cochrane Library, and Science Citation Index was performed to identify original published studies on CRC emergencies and their management. The findings are that the timeliness and adequacy of management of CRC complications depend on an interaction between patient-, disease-, and surgeon-related factors. In perforated CRC, short-term survival is determined by sepsis. The empirical surgical intervention in emergency colorectal surgery for malignancy is determined by the patient's status and the disease.
