Knotless retroperitoneoscopic nephron-sparing surgery for small renal masses: Comparison of bipolar sutureless technique and barbed suture technique.

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
Objective Laparoscopic knot-tying and suturing are the most difficult steps in shortening the warm ischemia time and learning curve of laparoscopic nephron-sparing surgery. This study was performed to demonstrate the safety, oncological efficacy, and technical tips of sutureless retroperitoneal laparoscopic nephron-sparing surgery (RPNSS). Methods This retrospective study included 78 cases of RPNSS using a sutureless technique and 126 cases of RPNSS using a single-layer barbed self-retaining suture technique performed from December 2012 to December 2016. Results The mean warm ischemia time was significantly shorter in the sutureless technique group than in the barbed self-retaining suture technique group (6.8 vs. 21.1 minutes, respectively). There was no significant difference in the mean age, body mass index, R.E.N.A.L. Nephrometry score, operative time, maximal tumor diameter, intraparenchymal depth, blood loss, operative time, transfusion rate, complication rate, or postoperative hospital stay between the two groups. No open conversion was needed. No positive margins or local recurrence were observed during follow-up. Conclusions The sutureless technique was proven to be safe and oncologically effective and may allow novice laparoscopic surgeons to easily and quickly master RPNSS, a technically difficult procedure.
