vNOTES (vaginal natural orifice transluminal surgery) gynecologic procedures in morbidly and super-morbidly obese women: five year experience.
Article in Archives of gynecology and obstetrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
purposeTo analyze our experience with vNOTES gynecologic procedures in women with morbid and super morbid obesity to determine feasibility and compare outcomes with standard minimally invasive techniques.
methodsGynecologic procedures performed by three surgeons on women with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 40 kg/m
results103 women with a BMI ≥ 40 kg/m
conclusionvNOTES gynecologic procedures are feasible in this high-risk population and may result in shorter recovery times and fewer complications than standard laparoscopy or transvaginal surgery. What does this study add to the clinical work: VNOTES approach is feasible in morbidly obese women and may have distinct advantages over conventional laparoscopic, vaginal or open techniques.
