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 purpose of this study was to explore the feasibility of laparoscopic partial splenectomy in patients with symptomatic benign lesions. During the period from April 2017 to February 2020, a single surgeon performed 7 LPS for benign lesions. As primary endpoint, we retrospectively analyzed the patient's short-term outcome and the operative results. As secondary endpoints, we considered 6-month follow-up. Laparoscopic partial splenectomy was performed successfully in all cases, with no major complications. Thirty-day mortality was nil. No post-operative transfusions were required and the median hospital stay was 4 (range 3-5) days. The median operative time was 110 (range 75-140) min and there was neither conversion to open surgery nor need for total splenectomy. Mean blood loss was 135.7 ± 103.6 ml and no intraoperative blood transfusions were necessary. All patients recovered successfully, with significant decrease of Ca 19.9 (98.22 ± 118.10 U/mL vs. 4.78 ± 3.35 U/mL, P = 0.015) and normal platelet count (215.7 × 10
