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

backgroundSpleen artery aneurysm represents the most common visceral aneurysm and the third most common splanchnic aneurysm. Most patients have no symptoms and are diagnosed as a part of other diagnostic focuses and examinations. Greater prevalence and application of modern diagnostic and imaging procedures has resulted in greater detection of this disease.

resultsWe present two patients with splenic artery aneurysms localized in the splenic hilum, who auspiciously underwent laparoscopic splenectomies with the use of hem-o-lock clips in the vascular hilum without complications. Both postoperative courses were uneventful. At six months follow up, both patients are asymptomatic.

conclusionThese two cases showed that in addition to the numerous advantages of minimally invasive approaches for treating splenic arterial aneurysms, there is a possibility to improve laparoscopic technique in terms of safety and economic reasons by using hem - o - lock clips as a hemostatic technique for the vascular elements of the spleen hilum.
