Effects of wide-angle laparoscopy on surgical workflow in laparoscopic cholecystectomies.
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionLaparoscopy is now the gold standard approach to many surgical procedures thanks to its many advantages. Minimizing distractions is essential to a safe and successful surgery and an undisrupted surgical workflow. The SurroundScope, a wide angle (270°) laparoscopic camera system has the potential to decrease surgical distractions and increase workflow.
methodsForty-two laparoscopic cholecystectomies were performed by a single surgeon, 21 with the SurroundScope and 21 with standard angle laparoscope. Video recordings of surgeries were reviewed for calculating the number of entries of surgical tools into the field of view, relative time of tools and ports viewed in surgical field and number of times camera was removed due to fog or smoke.
resultsThe usage of the SurroundScope resulted in a significantly lower number of entries to the field of view compared to the standard scope (58.50 versus 102; P < 0.0001). Usage of SurroundScope resulted in a significantly higher appearance ratio of tools, with a value of 1.87 compared to 1.63 for standard scope (P-value < 0.0001), and the appearance ratio of ports was also significantly higher, measuring 1.84 compared to 0.27 for the standard scope (P-value < 0.0001). In addition, the SurroundScope had to be removed and reinserted due to smoke or fog in only 2 cases (9.5%), compared to 12 cases (57.1%) in the standard scope group (P-value < 0.01).
conclusionsThe SurroundScope camera system improves surgical workflow in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This conceivably increase the safety of the operation due to the utilization of the wide-angle view and "chip on the tip" technology.
