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

backgroundThe present study aimed to determine whether total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) is being implemented safely and appropriately compared with abdominal total hysterectomy (ATH) in our hospital.

methodsWe retrospectively reviewed clinical records of 102 patients who underwent total hysterectomy for benign gynecological disease at Japanese Red Cross Yamaguchi Hospital from January 2017 to August 2018. We examined periods of hospital stay, operation time, blood loss, weight of the uterus, frequency of perioperative complications, and the duration from the first visit to the date of surgery.

resultsTLH and ATH were performed in 55 (53%) and 47 (46%) cases, respectively. The TLH group had significantly longer total operation time [133 (82-205) min vs. 87 (57-155) min,

conclusionTLH had a longer operation time and a lesser excised uterine weight, but it had less intraoperative blood loss, shorter hospital stay, and no difference in perioperative complication frequency when compared with ATH.
