"Elastic Stretch Cavity Building" System in Endoscopic Thyroidectomy of Giant Thyroid Tumors.

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
Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with large thyroid tumors underwent endoscopic thyroidectomy using the "elastic stretch cavity builder" system. Methods: This retrospective case series study included thyroid tumor patients admitted to the Ningbo Medical Center Li Hui li Hospital between September 2017 and November 2021. The self-developed "elastic stretch cavity builder" was used to elastically lift the anterior cervical flap, combined with low-pressure (3 mmHg) high-flow CO2 inflation, and create a working cavity for endoscopic thyroidectomy. Results: This study included 13 patients for analysis. The endoscopic thyroidectomy duration was 92-170 min (mean, 123 ± 24min). The maximum transverse plane diameter of the glands was 5.0-6.2 cm (mean, 5.3 ± 0.3 cm). The maximum sagittal plane diameter was 6.8-10.0 cm (mean, 7.6 ± 0.9 cm). After the "elastic stretch cavity builder" lifted the cervical flap, the height of the subcutaneous region was increased by 1.3 ± 0.2cm without affecting cervical activity. There was no residual scar in the anterior cervical skin puncture hole. All patients were satisfied with the cosmetic with the cosmetic satisfaction score was 3.4 ± 0.5. Conclusion: The novel mixed cavity building model established by the "elastic stretch cavity builder" might provide the surgeon with additional longitudinal cervical operating space while improving the stability of the space and saving human effort.
