Single-port laparoscopic appendectomy for perforated appendicitis using ArtiSential® wristed articulated instrument.
Article in Journal of minimal access surgery. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Single-port laparoscopic appendectomy (SPLA) was firstly introduced in 1998 and has been suggested potential advantages including better cosmetic outcome, less post-operative pain and avoidance of possible haemorrhagic complications from injuring epigastric vessels. However, single-port laparoscopic approach using conventional straight instruments may lead to internal and external conflicts and ergonomic discomfort, and new laparoscopic articulating instruments were developed to overcome these limitations of straight instruments.
