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

introduction and importanceIt has been more than century since the establishment of relationship between the intracranial pressure (ICP) and intraabdominal pressure (IAP) was suspected and confirmed backed up by several studies. The studies clearly demonstrate a link and the positive correlation between the two. CASE SUMMARY: 18 years old lady with previous history of ventricular peritoneal shunt during 6 months of age was planned for laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Intraoperatively free flow of CSF was observed without any intraoperative and post-operative complications. DISCUSSION: Pneumoperitoneum created during laparoscopic procedures may lead to the rise in ICP and thus, lead to serious consequences. This has been of a growing concern in a patient with Ventriculo Peritoneal Shunt (VP Shunt) in situ. The uncertainty regarding the safety of laparoscopic procedures in VP shunted patients thus, has been a subject of debate over the years.

conclusionOur aim therefore is to depict similar case we encountered in our department and based on it, we reviewed the literature in the quest of determining the safety of Laparoscopic procedure in patients with VP shunt.
