Hand-assisted laparoscopic versus open radical resection of gastric remnant cancer: a clinical comparison.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental medicine, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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
objectiveTo compare the perioperative clinical data between hand-assisted laparoscopic and open radical resection of gastric remnant cancer, and analyze the feasibility and advantages of hand-assisted laparoscopic resection of gastric remnant cancer.
methodsThe clinical data of 18 patients with gastric remnant cancer who underwent hand-assisted laparoscopic (n=9) or open surgery (n=9) were retrospectively analyzed to compare the perioperative outcomes and recovery between December 2007 and October 2014.
resultsAll 18 patients underwent surgery without post-operative complications. In the hand-assisted laparoscopy group, none required conversion to open surgery, and no intraoperative auxiliary injury occurred. The incision length was (8.78±0.62) cm in the hand-assisted laparoscopy group, and (14.06±0.81) cm in the open surgery group (t=15.565, P=0.000). The duration of the operation averaged (221.11±19.48) min in the hand-assisted laparoscopy group, and (212.89±14.30) min in the open surgery group (t=-1.021, P=0.323). The intraoperative blood loss was (105.56±35.04) ml in the hand-assisted laparoscopy group, and (147.78±41.92) ml in the open surgery group (t=2.319, P=0.034). The number of lymph nodes scavenged was (16.22±2.99) and 16.67±3.28 in the hand-assisted laparoscopy group and in the open surgery group, respectively (t=-.300, P=0.768). The postoperative time to passage of gas by anus was (68.67±10.00) hr in the hand-assisted laparoscopy group, and (79.78±9.16) hr in the open surgery group (t=2.458, P=0.026). Mild postoperative hemorrhage occurred at the anastomotic site in one patient in each surgery group. These complications resolved after treatment. And no serious perioperative complications, such as anastomotic site fistula, massive hemorrhage in the peritoneal cavity or digestive tract or death occurred in either group.
conclusionsHand-assisted laparoscopic radical resection of gastric remnant cancer is feasible, is of comparable efficacy to open surgery, and offers several advantages including small incisions, mild intraoperative hemorrhage, rapid postoperative recovery, and few postoperative complications.
