Extended uniportal bilateral sympathectomy.
Article in Journal of visualized surgery, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Hyperhidrosis affect 3% of the population and, despite benign nature of the disease, the individuals seek medical advice in order to improve their quality of life which can be severely compromised. The interruption of the sympathetic chain (sympathectomy) and of the nerve of Kuntz established its role as the definitive treatment of primary hyperhidrosis. In this manuscript, we present our extended uniportal technique with the aid of the video. Uniportal approach expresses all its benefit when applied for this procedure because there is no specimen to be retrieved and all the surgery is accomplished through a 1-2 cm port access.
