Morbidly Obese Patients with Ileocolic Crohn's Disease May Benefit from Robotic Surgery.
Article in JSLS : Journal of the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesObesity is increasing as a comorbid condition for patients requiring surgery for Crohn's disease. Minimally invasive colectomy is ideal for a patient with combined obesity and Crohn's disease. However laparoscopic colon resection is associated with high operative conversion rates in these cases. Data examining the use of robotic surgery in the obese patient with Crohn's disease is sparse.
methodsWe examined the feasibility and outcomes of performing a minimally invasive colectomy using the Da Vinci robot in a prospective case series of morbidly obese patients with ileal Crohn's disease.
resultsA robotic ileocolectomy was performed in four morbidly obese patients with Crohn's disease. There were no operative conversions or complications with a median length of stay of 3 days.
conclusionA robotic approach is a promising minimally invasive surgical alternative to laparoscopic surgery for these complex patients.
