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.

Abstract

backgroundThe performance of laparoscopic cholecystectomy could be a technical challenge. Procedure success depends on multiple factors namely: hepatobiliary anatomical variations, pathologic changes in the gallbladder and surrounding tissues, pre-operative interventional attempts, the individual surgeon's skill and finally patient co-morbidities. Anticipating the attendant challenges, can help to avoid several known complications associated with this procedure. Searching a more reliable anatomical topography to adopt during laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the basis for a safe surgical technique.

methodsBetween January 2012 and August 2015, 525 cases were presented with acute cholecystitis. Patients were classified in to two groups regarding degree of dissection difficulty. The study concept is defined and applied by the author in all study cases. No single case was excluded from the study.

resultsResults are processed in comparative way between both groups of the study. The increased risk results in Group B are related to technical difficulties.

conclusionThe study has offered a novel anatomical concept and safe surgical technique avoiding exploration of Calot's triangle. The new concept has minimized dissection demands and risk of injury related to the traditional laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The study has proposed a potentially secure and empirical laparoscopic cholecystectomy technique that could be considered in every case.
