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

The aim of this study is to investigate the feasibility and advantages of the da Vinci robotic system with the "3 + 2" mode (3 robotic arms and 2 assistants) in radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.The clinical data of 65 patients who underwent da Vinci robotic gastrectomy with the "3 + 2" mode from July 2016 to October 2019 were grouped into an observation group. An additional 65 patients who underwent robotic gastrectomy under the classic mode during the same period were grouped into a control group. The short-term surgical outcomes were compared between 2 different groups.Compared with the control group, the observation group had a significantly shorter operative time (176.18 ± 15.49 vs 203.85 ± 12.77 minutes, P < .001) and lower operation costs ($2761.19 ± $191.91 vs $3690.91 ± $162.82; P < .001). No statistical differences in other outcomes were observed (P > .05).We show that robotic gastrectomy with "3 + 2" mode is a safe and beneficial surgical procedure in new robotic surgery institutions.
