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 retrospective study analyses the prognostic effect of different factors on morbidity and lethality based on selected, primarily resecting colon carcinoma operations (n = 222). In all, 12.2% of our operations were performed under emergency conditions. The total complication rate was 31.5%, the lethality rate 7.7%. The left hemicolectomy cases showed the highest morbidity (48.4%), the rectum amputation the highest lethality (11.8%). Tumour staging tumour differentiation and the sex of the patient showed no significant influence on the postoperative morbidity and lethality. However, a correlation was proved between the age of the patient, tumour localisation, co-morbidity, duration of operation and the conditions under which the operation was performed (emergency or elective), on the one hand, and morbidity and lethality on the other.
