Predictive Factors for Success of Laparoscopic Splenectomy for ITP.
Article in JSLS : Journal of the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesTherapy-resistant immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is the most frequent indication of laparoscopic splenectomy (LS). It ensures the best results for this disease compared with possible second-line pharmacologic therapies. Therefore, learning about the safety of the surgical method and its long-term efficacy is important, as is selecting patients who respond to surgical treatment. Our purpose was to analyze the safety of LS and the short-and long-term prognostic significance of known perioperative parameters.
methodsWe performed 40 LSs for ITP from January 1, 2000, to January 1, 2015. We analyzed the roles of the perioperative parameters by using evidence-based guidelines.
resultsComplete response (CR; platelet count over 100 × 10
conclusionLS is safe and remains the most effective second-line treatment for ITP. In our study, younger age and response to preoperative steroids were predictive factors for the long-term success of splenectomy.
