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

With the increase in the frequency of robotic surgery, complications have also increased, including trocar site hernias, which rarely occur at the 8-mm port site after robotic cholecystectomy using the da Vinci Xi system. A 37-year-old woman was diagnosed with cholecystitis on abdominal sonography. She underwent robotic cholecystectomy using a bikini-line incision. However, after postoperative day 2, she presented to the emergency room with small bowel obstruction secondary to a herniated bowel loop through the left 8-mm port site. After failure to resolve the ileus, the patient underwent emergency surgery, and bowel resection and anastomosis of the ischemic area were performed. After surgery, the patient was discharged without complications. Although hernias develop less commonly at 8-mm robotic port sites, surgeons should carefully close the ports, especially in cases with large fascial defects or a high risk of herniation.
