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

purposeThe separation and sparing of the vesical branch of the inferior hypogastric plexus (IHP), to preserve the pelvic autonomic nerve, is critical and difficult in nerve sparing radical hysterectomy. Pelvic local anatomy was performed to provide the necessary anatomical information.

methodsPrecise pelvic anatomy was performed in 15 adult corpses, and immunohistochemical analysis was carried out on the parametrial tissues of three fresh cadavers to analyze the nerve fiber type and content of the vesical branch of the IHP.

resultsThe deep uterine vein is located in the upper region of the cardinal ligament (CL), with three to six multiple branches and anatomical variation, including one or two cervical branches, and two to four vesical branches. Three branches were found to be most common (63.3 %). The major distribution of the vesical branch of the IHP is dorsomedial to the middle and inferior vesical veins, with less ventral and lateral distribution. There are more sympathetic fibers than parasympathetic fibers in the vesical branch. There is a region rare of vasculature and nerve between the vaginal lateral margin and the vesical branch.

conclusionThe deep uterine vein is suggested as an anatomical landmark during surgery, to process the CL and preserve the pelvic splanchnic nerves. The middle and inferior vesical veins can be used as the landmark to preserve the vesical branch of the IHP.
