The Role of Minimally Invasive Surgery in the Management of Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Current Trends and Future Directions.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) provides superior results in the surgical treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). There exist various minimally invasive procedures, each possessing its own set of benefits and drawbacks. This literature review outlines these methodologies and underscores their importance in enhancing the outcomes of patients with IBD. A grand total of 192 studies were carefully chosen and succinctly summarized. Conventional multiport laparoscopy is the most widely used MIS for IBD, with single-incision laparoscopy showing even better results. Robotic surgery offers comparable results but at higher costs and longer operation times. In the future, there will be widespread acceptance of single-incision laparoscopy and robotic surgery due to improved training and reduced expenses. Further research into the technology's utility in different IBD presentations could increase its usage.
