Single-port laparoscopic-assisted resection for a large abdominal cystic lymphangioma: a case report.
Article in Surgical case reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundWe report the case of a young woman with a large abdominal cystic lymphangioma that was successfully resected using single-port laparoscopic-assisted cystectomy. This avoided the need for a large surgical incision, as would result during conventional laparotomy. CASE PRESENTATION: A 17-year-old young woman was admitted to our hospital complaining of abdominal pain that had persisted for 3 days. Computed tomography revealed a 10 × 10 × 10-cm low-density area in the mid-abdomen, and magnetic resonance imaging showed a large abdominal cystic lesion. A mesenteric cyst was suspected, and single-port laparoscopic-assisted resection was performed. The cyst fluid was aspirated using a tissue adhesive, a suction tube with negative pressure, and a 16-gage over-the-needle catheter and syringe. The tumor size was reduced without any spillage of cyst fluid into the abdominal cavity. Then, the shrunken cystic tumor was successfully removed via the small wound and resected outside the abdomen. Pathological findings revealed an abdominal cystic lymphangioma derived from the greater omentum.
conclusionsOur procedure was easy to perform and required no special materials. Therefore, it could be applied to various cases, such as for abdominal cystic diseases.
