Feasibility and value of modular splenic hilar lymphadenectomy technique in laparoscopic total gastrectomy: a retrospective-controlled research.
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThis study aims to investigate the feasibility and value of modular splenic hilar lymphadenectomy (MSHL) in LTG for advanced PGC located at the greater curvature. STUDY
designA retrospective-controlled research included 54 patients diagnosed with advanced PGC located at the greater curvature who underwent LTG combined with spleen-preserving hilar lymphadenectomy between January 2020 and December 2022 at the same treatment center. A total of 20 patients underwent classic splenic hilar lymphadenectomy (CSHL) using a medial approach (classic group), while 34 patients underwent MSHL (modular group). We summarized the technical points, caveats, and critical steps of the MSHL technique and observed and compared clinical indexes between the two groups.
resultsAll operations were successful without conversion to laparotomy. The mean operation time, mean splenic hilar lymph node dissection (LND) time, median intraoperative blood loss, and blood loss from splenic hilar LND were all significantly lower in the modular group than in the classic group (p < 0.05). The amount of NO.10 lymph nodes (LNs) was significantly higher in the modular group than in the classic group (p < 0.05). In the classic group, one patient experienced intraoperative splenic vein injury, and one experienced spleen laceration, whereas no intraoperative complications occurred in the modular group. The median postoperative feeding time, exhaust time, defecation time, and postoperative stay were all significantly lower in the modular group compared to the classic group (p < 0.05). In the modular group, one patient experienced Clavien-Dindo I complication and one Clavien-Dindo II complication, while in the classic group, one patient experienced Clavien-Dindo II complication and one Clavien-Dindo IIIa complication. There were no patient was re-hospitalized within 30 days after surgery.
conclusionThe modular splenic hilar LND technique can simplify complicated surgical procedures in SPSHL and reduce the risk of intraoperative bleeding and collateral damage.
