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

aimSince the first natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery procedure, renewed interest has arisen in further developing and advancing minimal access surgery. We introduce a natural orifice endoscopic approach for a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. PATIENTS &

methodsUsing the vagina as a natural orifice, we performed a transvaginal laparoscopic salpingo-oophorectomy to remove bilateral adnexa in patients with a strong family history of ovarian and/or breast cancer and those positive for

resultsTotal 36 women underwent transvaginal laparoscopic salpingo-oophorectomy. Conversion to routine laparoscopy was required in eight patients to complete the operation. No peri-operative complications were noted.

conclusionWe describe a novel approach in gynecological surgery. Our technique proved to be safe and efficient with the advantage of avoiding any abdominal scars.
