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

In Japan, the number of bariatric surgeries performed has remained low. Thus, concomitant laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) with laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is still relatively uncommon, but is increasing. We developed new port-sharing techniques for LC and LSG, which we performed on 26 obese Japanese patients with gall bladder (GB) diseases, using the LSG trocar arrangement and one additional trocar. We performed LC first, and after exchanging a port for a liver retractor in the epigastrium, we then completed LSG. One patient with an anomalous extrahepatic bile duct required one additional port. The mean LC time was 55 min, and the transition to LSG just after LC was smooth in all the patients. One patient suffered postoperative intraperitoneal hemorrhage, which was managed conservatively. Concomitant LC with LSG using port-sharing techniques is feasible and safe for obese Japanese patients with GB diseases.
