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

Background: Despite technical advances, day surgery still accounts for <1 % of adrenal procedures. We investigated feasibility and safety of same day adrenalectomy (SDA). Methods: Between We recruited 30 patients with primary hyperaldosteronism (PHA) or Cushing's syndrome (CS) into a prospective matched, single centre cohort study to evaluate the impact of exposure to a same day discharge pathway (SDA cohort; Results: Mean age was 51.3 ± 8.5 years, with 43 % female, 3.3 % ASA I and 96.7 % ASA II. Lesion size was 17 ± 9 mm (range 5-40 mm). 80 % of patients presented with PHA. The predefined primary endpoint (discharge on same calendar day without major complications, emergency presentation or readmission) was achieved in 100 % of SDA, but none of the in-patients (χ Conclusion: Same day discharge after adrenalectomy is feasible, safe, and well-perceived in appropriately selected patients with PHA and Cushing's syndrome.
