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

backgroundMinimally invasive anatomical resection (AR) for posterosuperior lesions is technically challenging. PATIENTS AND

methodsTwo cases of CHILD-class A hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in segment 7 with a liver stiffness less than 7 kPa treated by laparoscopic and robotic anatomical S7 segmentectomies were reported. Using the intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS), the tumor-bearing portal pedicle and the level targeted for compression were identified. The right hemiliver was adequately mobilized to allow handling of the organ during dissection. Using the grasper and the probe itself, the S7 Glissonean pedicle was transparenchymally compressed under real-time IOUS control. To further enhance the visibility of the discolored S7, ICG was administered intravenously, obtaining the compressed area to be resected as a non-stained one. Dissection was performed under intermittent Pringle maneuver up to exposing the right hepatic vein, dividing the Glissonean pedicle to segment 7 and then completing the resection.

resultsPathologic findings demonstrated a 4.9 cm and 7.3 cm HCC with a R0-resection margin (> 1 cm in both). Postoperative complications were nil. The patients were discharged 6 days after surgery.

conclusionsThis preliminary experience shows that the C-AR is a feasible and reliable technique in laparoscopic and robotic approach for posterosuperior lesions. Further studies are needed to investigate its applicability and standardization.
