Clinical impact and role of major vessels involvement in laparoscopic resection for hepatic hemangioma.

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
backgroundSevere bleeding remains a significant concern in laparoscopic resection for hepatic hemangioma. It is rarely reported that how the degree of major vessels involvement impacts on severe bleeding. The present study primarily aimed to analyze the impacts of the number of involved major vessels (NIMV) during laparoscopic surgery for hepatic hemangioma and evaluate the risk factors associated with increased bleeding.
methodsA database search was carried out for consecutive patients who underwent laparoscopic resection for liver hemangiomas at our department from January 2018 to December 2023. The collected data included demographics, characteristics of the hemangiomas, laboratory data, operation method, surgical and postoperative variables.
resultsA total of 72 patients were enrolled in the study. 42 patients were categorized into the group with NIMV < 2, while 30 patients were divided into the group with NIMV ≥ 2. The group with NIMV ≥ 2 demonstrated a significant correlation with special segments, involved multiple segments and diameter of the hemangiomas (P < 0.01). And the perioperative variables including the extent of resection, operative time, blood loss, Pringle maneuver times, postoperative stay, drainage tube duration, and postoperative liver function (ALT, AST) also showed significant differences between the two groups (P < 0.05). Notably, NIMV ≥ 2 was identified as the most important independent risk factor for intraoperative blood loss ≥ 500 ml in laparoscopic surgery for hepatic hemangioma (P = 0.011). For NIMV ≥ 2, the independent risk factor was special segments in multivariate analysis (P = 0.000).
conclusionThe involvement of multiple major vessels (NIMV ≥ 2) was significantly associated with special segments, resulting in increased intraoperative blood loss, operation difficulty, and delayed postoperative recovery. Moreover, it was identified as the single independent risk factor with a considerable risk for increased blood loss during laparoscopic resection for hepatic hemangioma.
