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

purpose(1) To survey the dissemination of SILC; (2) to determine which SILC method has become mainstream; (3) to determine whether the characteristic complications vary according to the type of procedure.

methodsAn electronic search of PubMed, Databases@Ovid, and SciVerse Scopus between 2003/01/01 and 2012/12/31 was performed.

resultsThe peak number of annually published articles was 70 in 2011. The most common procedures were single skin incision, the use of a SILS Port(®), suture suspension and a 5-mm oblique scope. The intraoperative complications rate was 1.69 %. Postoperative complications occurred in 213/5283 cases. According to the surgical procedure, five factors (approach; P = 0.0017, gallbladder anchorage; P < 0.001, size; P = 0.049 and type; P < 0.001 of the scope, and size of the clip applier; P = 0.074) significantly affected the incidence of wound infection. The incidence of wound seroma/bleeding was significantly influenced by gallbladder anchorage (P = 0.009), the use of curved/articulated instruments (P = 0.048), and the diameter of the clip applier (P < 0.001).

conclusionTo determine the best operative procedure for SILC, an analysis of uniform operative procedures is needed.
