Delayed Intra Splenic Abscess: a Specific Complication Following Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundDelayed intra splenic abscess after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a very rare complication with poor manifestations.
methodsWe present three cases of delayed intrasplenic abscess which were managed in our departmentof minimal invasive surgery. DISCUSSION: Splenic abscess may occur in the early post-operative period following LSG; it is usually an extra splenic event after the gastric leak or an infected hematoma. In our cases, two patients had an asymptomatic ischemic demarcation in the upper part of the spleen. This underlines the possible role of ischemia as a factor in abscess formation of late intrasplenic abscesses that enhanced by a state of transient immune suppression.
conclusionIntrasplenic abscess complicating laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is different from early extra splenic abscesses. The exact causes are still unclear; the role of partial splenic ischemia has to be rolled out.
