Popis: | To investigate the overall performance of carbon nanoparticles (CNs) for detecting lymph nodes (LNs) and node metastasis during colorectal cancer surgery.The English and Chinese literature was searched until 29 April 2020. Studies were included if they were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for colorectal resection and LN dissection that compared the use of CNs with a blank control in colorectal cancer surgery. Quality assessment and data extraction were performed, and a meta-analysis was conducted using ReviewManager 5.3 and Stata 15.1 software.A total of 17 RCTs comprising 1241 patients were included for analysis. Compared with the outcomes of the blank controls, the use of CNs resulted in an average of 5.21 more LNs per patient (weighted mean difference = 5.21, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 4.14-6.29, p0.001) and a 68% higher detection rate of micro LNs (relative risk [RR] = 1.68, 95% CI = 1.38-2.04, p0.001). In addition, more metastatic LNs were identified in stained nodes (RR = 1.56, 95% CI = 1.40-1.75, p0.001), but the total detection rate of metastatic nodes did not differ between the groups.CN is an effective lymphatic tracer in colorectal cancer surgeries. Further studies with larger sample sizes are needed to validate these findings. |
