Panniculectomy: Practical Pearls and Pitfalls.
Review in Plastic and reconstructive surgery. Global open, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Panniculectomy is an increasingly common operation, given the current obesity epidemic and the increasing prevalence of bariatric surgery. At first glance, it could be considered a technically simple operation; however, this procedure can be fraught with complications, given the patient population and high demands placed on compromised abdominal tissue. Sufficient attention must be given to the nuances of patient optimization and surgical planning to maximize safe and ideal outcomes. We highlight our practical tips when performing standard or massive panniculectomy for preoperative optimization, intraoperative techniques, and postoperative management to reduce complication and maximize outcomes of this procedure from a surgeon's and a patient's perspective.
