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.

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

Laparoscopy splenectomy (LS) was adopted in surgery from 1980s, it has become the main way of exploring for treating spleen diseases. Compared with conventional open surgery, LS has been gradually accepted by physicians and patients due to its advantages, including minimal surgical injury, less intraoperative blood loss, quick postoperative recovery, shorter hospital period, better cosmetic result, less risk of postoperative infections and improved postoperative quality of life Here, we try to investigate the splenic pedicle transection by using Endo-GIA (a linear stapling device) procedure and manual manipulation of secondary splenic pedicle for LS. A retrospective study was conducted on 60 patients who underwent LS. And patients were divided into two groups. 30 patients (group A) received splenic pedicle transection with Endo-GIA procedure and in the other 30 patients (group B) underwent secondary splenic pedicle transection for LS. Perioperative outcome measures of each group were recorded, including operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative flatus pass time, postoperative complications, drainage duration, hospital cost and length of hospital stay. Surgeries were successfully achieved in 60 patients. The operative duration of group A was significantly shorter than that of group B. However, group B was significantly superior over Endo-GIA group in terms of the intraoperative blood loss, postoperative flatus pass time, drainage duration, length of hospital stay and total cost of hospital stays. No significant differences were observed in postoperative fever, ascites and hyperamylasemia between two groups. Both of these two approaches for LS are safe and feasible. However, compared with Endo-GIA procedure, manual manipulation of secondary splenic pedicle for LS may leading to less intraoperative blood loss, results in less hospital expense, and hence can be widely adopted in clinical practice.
