Lymph node dissection does not affect the survival of patients with tumor node metastasis stages I and II colorectal cancer.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundThe effect of the number of lymph node dissections (LNDs) during radical resection for colorectal cancer (CRC) on overall survival (OS) remains controversial.
aimTo investigate the association between the number of LNDs and OS in patients with tumor node metastasis (TNM) stage I-II CRC undergoing radical resection.
methodsPatients who underwent radical resection for CRC at a single-center hospital between January 2011 and December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Cox regression analyses were performed to identify the independent predictors of OS at different T stages.
resultsA total of 2850 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical resection for CRC were enrolled. At stage T1, age [
conclusionThe number of LDNs did not affect the survival of patients with TNM stages I and II CRC. Therefore, insufficient LNDs should not be a cause for alarm during the surgery.
