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

Objective: Recently, number of laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy (LSC) has been increasing. Summary background data: LSC is suitable as a treatment as it can avoid intraoperative bile duct injury and bleeding for difficult laparoscopic cholecystectomy. On the other hand, improper handling of remnant of GB can lead to postoperative bile leakage. Methods: Here, we report our positive experience utilizing new technique of continuous suture closure and omental covering using Lapra Ty® suture clips on the remnant of GB. Results: From January 2016 to July 2021, we experienced 30 cases of LSC for LC patients who had difficulty securing critical view of safety (CVS). In six of the 30 cases, we repaired remnant of GB using continuous suture closure and omental covering with Lapra Ty® suture clips. The median operating time was 136 min (range 112-199 ml), and amount of bleeding was 1 ml (range 1-100). There were no cases of postoperative bile leakage (postope. BL), remnant cystic duct stone, and abscess formation in abdomen. Conclusion: we recommend this new suturing technique for closure of remnant of GB as it was very effective in preventing postope. BL after LSC.
