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

backgroundElderly patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) can judge the risk of postoperative complications and oncological outcomes due to visceral obesity, which can provide data reference for the early prediction of prognosis.

aimTo explore the effect of visceral obesity on postoperative complications and oncological outcomes in elderly patients with CRC.

methodsA total of 150 elderly patients who underwent radical surgery for CRC at Inner Mongolia Medical University and Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region People's Hospital from January 2021 to June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into the abdominal [visceral fat area (VFA) ≥ 100.00 cm

resultsThe overall incidence of postoperative complications was significantly higher in the abdominal obesity group than in the non-abdominal obesity group (

conclusionVisceral obesity significantly increases the risk of postoperative complications in elderly patients with CRC and may adversely affect short-term tumor prognosis. Preoperative risk identification and interventions for abdominal obesity should be strengthened to improve perioperative safety and postoperative rehabilitation quality.
