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

objectivesThe da Vinci SP® Surgical System received U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval for urological procedures in 2018. Here, we describe the first experience performing single-port robot-assisted donor nephrectomy (RADN) using the da Vinci SP® surgical system, present 90-day clinical outcomes, and discuss tips for operative success.

methodsSeven consecutive patients underwent single-port RADN at a single institution between September 1, 2020 and March 31, 2021. Surgery was performed through a single, 60 mm Pfannenstiel incision with a 12 mm periumbilical assistant port for suction and vascular stapling. Donor characteristics, operative details, 90-day donor clinical outcomes, and recipient renal function were retrospectively evaluated.

resultsFour female and three male patients successfully underwent single-port RADN without conversion to standard multiport or open approach. Six cases were left-sided. Estimated blood loss for each procedure was ≤ 50 mL. Mean operative time, warm ischemia time, and extraction time were 218.3 minutes (standard deviation [SD]: 16.3 minutes), 5 minutes 4 seconds (SD: 56 seconds), and 3 minutes 37 seconds (SD: 38 seconds). Mean pre-operative creatinine and estimated glomerular filtration rate were 0.79 mg/dL and 107.3 mL/min/1.73m

conclusionSingle-port RADN is a technically feasible and safe procedure with the da Vinci SP® system and can confer acceptable functional and cosmetic outcomes. Future studies are needed to define long-term outcomes and compare with previously established techniques for donor nephrectomy.
