A role for laparoscopy in the age of robotics: a retrospective cohort study of perioperative outcomes between 2D laparoscopic radical prostatectomy vs 3DHD laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.

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
purposeOur study compares perioperative outcomes between two-dimensional (2D) laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) and the 4th generation three-dimensional/high definition (3DHD) LRP.
methodsRetrospectively acquired data from patients that underwent 2D LRP (n = 75) and 3DHD LRP (n = 75) from March 2013 to October 2015 were evaluated. Procedures were performed by a single surgeon. The extra-peritoneal approach with 5 trocars was utilized. Perioperative outcomes, potency, and continence were compared between groups.
resultsPatient characteristics were similar between the two groups in terms of age (p = 0.44), prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels (p = 0.34), and Gleason scores (p = 0.14). Body mass index (BMI) was significantly higher in the 3DHD group (p = 0.0036). Postoperatively, no significant differences were observed in Hgb loss (p = 0.50), positive surgical margins (p = 1.00), and post-op Gleason scores (p = 0.30). Significant differences were observed for length of hospital stay (p < 0.001) and Jackson-Pratt (JP) drainage (p < 0.001). Regarding potency, 73.7% and 51.6% of the patients in the 3DHD and 2D groups regained potency at 6 months, respectively (p = 0.0025). Almost 43% of the patients in the 3DHD group regained continence at 1 month while for the 2D groups it was only 17.3% (p = 0.0008).
conclusion3DHD and 2D LRP have resulted in good outcomes in the perioperative periods. Our results show decreased JP drainage, shorter length of hospital stay, earlier return of urinary control, and earlier return of sexual function in the 3DHD LRP group. In lower volume centers where robotics equipment is not feasible due to economic barriers 3DHD can be safely performed as a minimally invasive alternative.
