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

The centralization of complex surgical procedures at universities improves treatment quality and prognosis. Numerous studies have confirmed that this is accompanied by a reduction in the length of hospital stays and treatment costs. In addition to the positive impact on patient care, the universities' roles in teaching and research are also experiencing changes; however, risks and limitations should also be addressed. Without extensive cooperation with outpatient and inpatient partners regarding diagnostics, emergency care and the implementation of multimodal treatment under the coordination of university visceral surgery departments, the effects on visceral surgery training must also be considered, so as not to negatively affect the attractiveness of the surgical profession and to avoid staff turnover. Significant changes and restructuring regarding new logistics requirements are emerging. There are indications of significant changes and restructuring regarding new requirements for logistics, interdisciplinary cooperation with portal clinics and collaboration in the interdisciplinary tumor board, which cannot yet be fully assessed.
