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

objectiveTo evaluate the effect of obesity on clinical and financial outcomes of minimally invasive hysterectomy

methodsThis was a retrospective cohort study of 5 affiliated hospitals. We obtained demographic, operative, and financial characteristics to analyze the effects of obesity on outcomes, including operating room (OR) time, estimated blood loss (EBL), length of stay (LOS), adverse perioperative events, and hospital charges. Obesity was stratified by the following classes: no obesity (BMI <30 kg/m

resultsA total of 2483 women underwent benign, minimally invasive hysterectomy. Laparoscopic was the most common approach (79.8%), followed by robotic (12.2%), and vaginal (8.0%). Mean BMI was 30.13 ± 6.99 kg/m

conclusionObesity appears to have a significant effect on clinical outcomes of benign hysterectomy that is approach-dependent and most notable among patients with class III obesity. BMI was not, however, a predictor of financial outcomes.
