Nerve-Sparing Radical Hysterectomy Using the Okabayashi-Kobayashi Method.
Article in Surgery journal (New York, N.Y.), 2021. 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
Radical hysterectomy (RH) is a standard treatment for early-stage cervical cancer. This surgery extirpates the uterus along with the paracervical tissues, vagina, and the paracolpium to achieve local control. Pelvic lymphadenectomy is a critical component of RH performed for regional control. A clear understanding of pelvic anatomy is critical to safely performing a RH and achieving optimal oncological and functional outcomes. The various surgical steps can damage the pelvic autonomic nerves, and a systematic nerve-sparing technique is used for the preservation of autonomic nerves. There is an intricate vascular network in the lateral paracervix (cardinal ligament) and the pelvic sidewall. We need to comprehend the three-dimensional structure of the vascular and nerve anatomy in the pelvis to perform RH effectively and safely. We can create six spaces around the uterine cervix, including the paravesical spaces, pararectal spaces, a vesicovaginal space, and a rectovaginal space to reveal the target of extirpation. It is critical to find the proper tissue plane separated by the layers of membranous connective tissue (fascia), in order to minimize intraoperative bleeding.
