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
objectivesLaparoscopic splenectomy became the standard surgical procedure in the 1990s. The goal of this study was to analyze the outcome of the patients who underwent laparoscopic splenectomy for the benign hematologic diseases of the spleen and compare its results with open splenectomy. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe study was conducted as a retrospective cohort study analyzing and comparing the data obtained from 196 patients' case records in the Clinic for Digestive Surgery, Clinical Center of Serbia, for the benign disorders of the spleen, divided into two groups: patients operated with laparoscopic technique and patients in whom classic splenectomy was performed. The analyzed parameters were divided into three groups as preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative.
resultsIn the laparoscopic splenectomy group, less intraoperative blood loss, lower incidental intraoperative complications and a shorter duration of surgery were recorded. The incidence of postoperative complications and reoperations was higher in the group of classically operated patients. Postoperative recovery, expressed by the duration of postoperative abdominal drainage, recovery of intestinal peristalsis and length of postoperative hospitalization, was significantly shorter in the laparoscopic group.
conclusionLaparoscopic splenectomy is an effective and safe surgical procedure in the treatment of many benign diseases of the spleen. Improvement of the laparoscopic technique of surgical teams and technical improvement of the laparoscopic equipment can lead to even wider application of laparoscopic splenectomy as standard operative procedure, and thus to safer and better quality treatment of patients with wider spectrum diseases of the spleen.
