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: The aim of this research was to assess the role of robotics and its outcome in gynaecology both in benign and malignant cases in a single centre and provide a critical evaluation of possible advantages of robot assisted surgeries from surgeons' point of view. Design: A single centre, retrospective observational study. Population: All women who underwent robotic gynaecological surgeries between 2015 and 2022. Methods: The Da Vinci Si™ robotic system was used for these surgeries performed by all surgeons at our quaternary care centre, and data were acquired retrospectively through electronic medical records. Descriptive statistical analysis of data was done. Main outcome measures included operative time, estimated blood loss, hospital stay, complications and conversion rates in all cases. Age was analysed as a demographic data. Outcome: A total of 211 robotic cases were performed including 172 hysterectomies, 20 myomectomies and 19 cases for other gynaecological indications. The mean operating time or hysterectomy and myomectomy was 113 and 129 min, respectively, and haemoglobin drop was 1.34 and 1.2 g/dl, respectively. No conversions to laparotomy were observed in either of the groups. The surgeries for 19 benign gynaecological conditions included ovarian cystectomy, cesarean scar repair and chronic cornual ectopic. Conclusion: Robotic surgical system helps accomplish several procedures with exceptional laparoscopic skills. Robotic surgery is safe in all types of gynaecological procedures and is a promising alternative for comprehensive gynaecologic surgical care.
