Transvaginal pure NOTES sigmoid resection using a single port device.
Article in Techniques in coloproctology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04048421 (A Phase II Study to Evaluate the Feasibility and Safety of Hybrid Transvaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery for Treatment of Patients With Colon Cancer), which is not on this map.

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

Abstract
backgroundThe amount of published experience using natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) is increasing. However, approximately half of the technical approaches described include NOTES as part of a hybrid procedure. Colonic resections performed using NOTES have mainly been described using a hybrid approach.
methodsAn 84-year-old female presented with a symptomatic volvulus of the sigmoid colon. Endoscopic detorsion and desufflation were successfully performed. Definitive treatment was accomplished by performing a sigmoid resection entirely via a transvaginal route using a single port device (SILS™ Covidien, Westbury, MA, USA).
resultsOperative time was 135 min. No intraoperative or postoperative complications occurred. Only minimal narcotic analgesia was required and oral intake was initiated on postoperative day 3. At the last follow-up assessment, 2 months postoperatively, no complications or recurrent volvulus were observed.
conclusionTransvaginal NOTES sigmoid colectomy for sigmoid volvulus is feasible and can be performed safely.
