The technique of laparoscopic and robotic extended cholecystectomy for gallbladder cancer.
Article in Journal of minimally invasive surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The application of minimally invasive surgery for gallbladder cancer (GBC) is yet controversial. This article discusses the techniques of laparoscopic and robotic extended cholecystectomy. A 69-year-old male diagnosed with cT1-2N0 GBC underwent laparoscopic surgery, and a 55-year-old male with cT2N1 GBC underwent robotic surgery after preoperative chemotherapy. Nonanatomical partial hepatectomy with lymphadenectomy was performed. Liver parenchymal dissection was performed using Cavitron Ultrasonic Surgical Aspirator laparoscopically and Maryland bipolar dissector and Harmonic scalpel robotically. The operation time was 180 and 220 minutes, and the estimated blood loss was 140 and 130 mL, respectively. The final pathologies were pT1bN0 and pT2aN1, for which patients received adjuvant chemotherapy. There was no evidence of recurrence at 33 and 18 months without complications. Both laparoscopic and robotic extended cholecystectomy can be safely performed with the robotic surgical system as an effective alternative for GBC requiring liver resection with radical lymphadenectomy.
