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

backgroundMisidentification of anatomical structures is one of the most common causes of bile duct injury following laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Achieving Critical View of Safety (CVS) is a standard step in conducting safe cholecystectomy all over the world. In our institute, we achieve CVS via a unique technique called Triple One or 111 and find it very helpful and easy to achieve CVS. Moreover, the rate of conversion has also decreased while achieving CVS via this technique. The unique aspect of the Triple One technique is that by following this method, even new laparoscopic surgeons can achieve CVS very easily in difficult cases and, hence, it decreases the chances of vasculobiliary injury (VBI).

objectiveThis study aimed to determine how effective the Triple One technique is in achieving CVS as well as in lessening the chances of VBI. MATERIAL AND

methodsA total of 545 patients were admitted through the outpatient department, ranging in age from 30 to 70 years, with a mean of 50 years. The study comprised patients with American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) I & II, acute and chronic cholecystitis, and symptomatic cholelithiasis. The study excluded patients with co-morbidities, prior abdominal procedures, and suspected complications. On the second postoperative day, all patients received their discharge papers and on the seventh postoperative day, follow-up was completed.

resultsSuccessful gallbladder extraction using the Triple One technique was achieved in 540 (99%) cases. The other five (1%) cases converted to open cholecystectomy because of the difficult gallbladder anatomy and extensive scarring. No VBI or bile duct injury was noted. No mortality was recorded during the study period.

conclusionBy incorporating CVS using the Triple One technique into our policies and curriculum, we may encourage safe cholecystectomy practices and prevent bile duct injuries.
