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

Purpose: To compare and analyze the therapeutic effects of endoscopy-assisted laparoscopic surgery (EALS) and laparoscopic surgery (LS) in the treatment of gastric duplication cysts (GDCs). Patients and Methods: We reviewed the clinical data of children with GDCs who underwent surgical treatment at Hubei Maternal and Child Health Hospital, Yijishan Hospital of Wannan Medical College, and Qingdao Women and Children's Medical Center from September 2014 to November 2022. Results: The study comprised 29 children with GDCs, including 14 in the EALS group and 15 in the LS group. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of age, sex, weight, and cyst size characteristics. There was a significant difference between the two groups in terms of average surgical time (P>0.05), which was 1.100 ± 0.833 hours in the EALS group and 1.933 ± 0.159 hours in the LS group. There was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05) in average intraoperative blood loss, which was 7.93 ± 3.81 milliliters in the EALS group and 11.80 ± 2.72 milliliters in the LS group. There was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05) in average postoperative fasting time, which was 73.79 ± 8.36 hours in the EALS group and 114.1 ± 9.24 hours in the LS group. There was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05) in average postoperative hospital stay, which was 10.21 ± 4.25 days in the EALS group and 14.47 ± 4.36 days in the LS group. Conclusion: EALS technology can not only shorten surgical time, accurately locate GDCs, reduce injuries, and decrease the probability of complications but also achieve treatment goals safely and reliably.
