Strategies and Outcomes of Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy for Large Uterine Cervical Fibroids.
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 5 papers.
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
objectivesTo present the methods and outcomes of total laparoscopic hysterectomy with debulking surgery for large cervical fibroids.
methodsThis is a single-center study. Twenty-one women who underwent total laparoscopic hysterectomy between October 1, 2012 and November 30, 2020 for large cervical fibroids (diameter ≥10 cm) based on a diagnosis by magnetic resonance imagining were enrolled. Conventional total laparoscopic hysterectomy for large cervical fibroids was initially attempted. If this could not be completed, debulking surgery, such as enucleation of large cervical fibroids or cervical amputation, was performed during total laparoscopic hysterectomy.
resultsTotal laparoscopic hysterectomy could be completed in all 21 patients with large cervical fibroids without blood transfusion. Conventional total laparoscopic hysterectomy was performed in four patients (19%), and 17 patients (81%) required debulking surgery at the time of total laparoscopic hysterectomy. The median diameter of the major axis of the cervical fibroid, uterine weight, intraoperative blood loss, and operative time were 12 cm, 750 g, 100 mL, and 191 min, respectively.
conclusionTotal laparoscopic hysterectomy for large cervical fibroids, although minimally invasive, requires a high level of laparoscopic skill. However, our data suggests that total laparoscopic hysterectomy for large cervical fibroids can be feasible, with an acceptable level of blood loss, by performing debulking surgeries such as enucleation of large cervical fibroids or cervical amputation.
