[Implementation of hybrid-NOTES sigmoidectomy for diverticular disease : In a center for minimally invasive surgery].
Article in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundNatural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) describes surgical procedures through a natural orifice. In hybrid-NOTES small transabdominal trocars are combined with a NOTES access.
objectiveTo evaluate hybrid-NOTES sigmoidectomy as a standard procedure for diverticulitis. MATERIAL AND
methodsElective laparoscopic sigmoidectomies performed between May 2011 and January 2016 were prospectively collated. Primary endpoint was the feasibility of hybrid-NOTES sigmoidectomy. The reasons for planning a laparoscopically-assisted sigmoidectomy (LAS), intraoperative change of treatment and reactive conversion were evaluated. Secondary endpoints were complications and operative time.
resultsOut of 130 laparoscopic sigmoidectomies 83% were planned for hybrid-NOTES and 8 out of 52 (15%) transvaginal (TVS) and 14 out of 56 (25%) transrectal (TRS) sigmoidectomies were intraoperatively changed to LAS. The reason for the change in 64% was that the specimen was too bulky and 80% of scheduled hybrid-NOTES procedures were carried out as planned. The operative time for TVS (146.8 ± 44.5 min) was shorter compared to LAS (173.2 ± 58.8 min, P = 0.016). The morbidities of TVS (15.3%) and TRS (14.9%) were not significantly different from LAS (23.9%, P = 0.501 and P = 0.537, respectively).
conclusionHybrid-NOTES for diverticular disease may be indicated in more than 80% of cases. In respect of intraoperative change of treatment, hybrid-NOTES is feasible in two thirds of patients. Given a high level of expertise, hybrid-NOTES can be provided as a standard procedure in sigmoidectomy for diverticular disease.
