Retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy versus transperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy for pheochromocytoma: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Wideochirurgia i inne techniki maloinwazyjne = Videosurgery and other miniinvasive techniques, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Introduction: To compare the efficacy and safety of retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy (RLA) vs. transperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy (TLA) for pheochromocytoma (PHEO). Aim: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of RLA versus TLA for PHEO. Material and methods: A systematic research of PubMed, Ovid, Scopus (up to June 2022), and citation lists was performed for all comparative eligible studies of RLA versus TLA for PHEO. Statistical analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4. Results: Overall, six studies including 597 patients (RLA 243; TLA 354) were included. RLA was associated with lower BMI compared to TLA (WMD = -0.81 kg/m Conclusions: For selected PHEO patients, RLA has advantages in terms of operative time, EBL, and length of hospital stay, but the HI rate is higher. Since the lower BMI and smaller tumor size of RLA reduced the difficulty of surgery, these results need to be confirmed by further studies.
