1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Herein, we report a case of a 63-year-old, nonobese, woman who underwent laparoscopic surgical staging for endometrial cancer with pelvic and para-aortic lymph node dissection. After being discharged, the patient presented to the emergency department with fever and abdominal pain, 1 week after the procedure. Abdominal tenderness, fever, and anemia were the key clinical and laboratory findings. A computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a cystic mass with air bubbles, located in the right iliopsoas region. The features were consistent with an infected hematoma at the right iliopsoas region, which was managed with antibiotics and CT-guided pigtail drainage. Laparoscopic surgical staging for endometrial cancer has been shown to have fewer early complications than open surgery. However, complications can still occur in the most experienced hands. Abscess arising from hematomas after laparoscopic surgical staging can be managed adequately with noninvasive CT-guided drainage.
