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

objectiveTo verify the amount of radiation exposure to the eye of operators during endocardiovascular surgery (ECVS) in hybrid operating room (HOR), which increases the risk of cataracts in surgeons.

methodsFifty cases of ECVS (including 36 transcatheter aortic valve implantation and 14 thoracic endovascular repair) using the transfemoral approach performed from February 2020 to July 2020 were included. A measurement device was attached to the left side of the head of the operators and their assistants to measure the cumulative dose (CD) of intraoperative radiation exposure. The subjects were divided into the control group (Group C, n = 26), received conventional protection using the protective curtain in HOR and the protected group (Group R, n = 24), received conventional protection and protection sheet. The normalized CD by dose area product (CD/DAP) was evaluated.

resultsThe CD/DAP of the surgeons was significantly decreased in Group R, averaging at 5.97 μSV/Gy cm

conclusionsThe radiation exposure to the surgeon's eye could be significantly reduced by protection sheet.
