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

backgroundSILS (single incision laparoscopic surgery) and NOTES (natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery) are considered breakthroughs in minimally invasive surgery, the first consisting in the surgeon working via a single entrance site and the second via a natural orifice (e.g., oral cavity).

methodsSince 2000 until 2022, the original articles published in the online databases were analyzed. Eligible studies included information about the current therapy of patients with liver surgical pathology and how the two new techniques improve the surgical approach.

resultsA total of 798 studies were identified. By applying the exclusion criteria, nine studies remained to be included in the review. Two out of nine studies examined the NOTES approach in liver surgery, whereas the other seven focused on the SILS technique. The age of the patients ranged between 24 and 83 years. Liver resections for hepatocellular carcinoma or colorectal metastases were undertaken and biliary or hydatid cysts were removed. The mean procedure time was 95 to 205 min and the average diameter of the lesions was 5 cm.

conclusionsWhen practiced by multidisciplinary teams, transvaginal liver resection is feasible and safe. The goals of SILS and NOTES are to be less intrusive, more easily tolerated and aesthetic.
