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

introductionThe use of pneumoperitoneum is an essential step for performing laparoscopic and robotic surgery. Pneumoperitoneum insufflation can cause complications such as pneumothorax, subcutaneous emphysema, and pneumomediastinum. The purpose of this meta-analysis is to compare the safety of using the conventional insufflation system versus a Valveless insufflation system as devices for manufacturing pneumoperitoneum in robotic-assisted nephrectomy.

methodsA comprehensive literature search was conducted on PUBMED, EMBASE, SCOPUS, and Cochrane, from inception until January 2024. Randomized and nonrandomized prospective studies were included in the meta-analysis, performed by the R+ Rstudio.

resultsThree publications encompassing 478 patients were included. We observed no difference in SCE (OR 0.60, CI 95% 0.27;1.34, p = 0.134, I

conclusionThe presented data showed no difference between the AIS when compared with CIS in Pneumoperitoneum insufflation-related complications.
