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 barbed suture e.g. V-Loc™, are occasionally used in urological surgery due to the practical advantage of omitting the need for surgical knots and reducing surgical time. In this report, an 83-year-old man diagnosed as having invasive bladder cancer underwent robot-assisted radical cystectomy: on the thirteenth postoperative day, he was diagnosed as having strangulated ileus of the small bowel. The small bowel was strangulated by bands formed between the stump of V-Loc™ and the fatty appendices of the sigmoid colon. This is the first report of a small bowel ileus associated with the barbed suture in the field of urology.
