Quantifying and Statistically Modeling Residual Pneumoperitoneum after Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy: A Prospective, Single-Center, Observational Study.

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
backgroundLaparoscopic surgery (LS) requires CO
methodsWe prospectively enrolled patients who underwent RALP between August 2018 and January 2020. CT scans were performed on postoperative days (POD) 3, 5, and 7. To investigate potential factors influencing the quantity of RPP, correlation plots were made against common variables.
resultsIn total, 31 patients with a mean age of 66 years (median 67, IQR 62-70.5) and mean BMI 26.59 (median 25.99, IQR: 24.06-29.24) underwent RALP during the study period. All patients had a relatively unremarkable post-operative course (30/31 with Clavien-Dindo class 0; 1/31 with class 2). After 3, 5, and 7 days, 3.2%, 6.4%, and 32.3% were completely without RPP, respectively. The mean RPP at 3 days was 37.6 mL (median 9.58 mL, max 247 mL, IQR 3.92-31.82 mL), whereas the mean RPP at 5 days was 19.85 mL (median 1.36 mL, max 220.77 mL, IQR 0.19-5.61 mL), and 7 days was 10.08 mL (median 0.09 mL, max 112.42 mL, IQR 0-1.5 mL). There was a significant correlation between RPP and obesity (
conclusionsThis is the first study to systematically assess RPP after a standardized laparoscopic procedure using CT. Larger patients tend to have smaller residuals. Our data may help surgeons interpreting post-operative CTs in similar patient populations.
