Laser hemorrhoidoplasty versus hemorrhoidectomy in the treatment of surgically indicated hemorrhoids in inflammatory bowel patients: a randomized comparative clinical study.
Trial report in Surgical endoscopy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06216223 (Surgery Versus Laser Ablation of Anal Diseases in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients), which is not on this map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
backgroundThis study aims to assess and compare the outcomes of traditional surgery and laser surgery for anal hemorrhoids in patients with inflammatory bowel disease.
methodsThis is a single-center prospective randomized comparative clinical trial performed at Zagazig University Hospitals from September 2023 to September 2024. The study comprised 48 patients who were admitted during this period and had inflammatory bowel disease along with hemorrhoids. The patients were randomly allocated into two groups: Group I consisted of 24 patients who underwent laser hemorrhoidoplasty, selected based on odd numbers, while Group II consisted of 24 patients who underwent traditional surgery, selected based on even numbers.
resultsGroup I, which underwent laser treatment for hemorrhoids in inflammatory bowel patients, demonstrated significantly better outcomes than traditional surgery (p < 0.001) regarding operation time, pain score and duration, postoperative anal discharge, return to work time, and patient satisfaction. Moreover, laser treatment was found to be more effective than traditional surgery for treating hemorrhoids in inflammatory bowel patients in terms of postoperative bleeding and anal stenosis. Additionally, there was a higher frequency of residual hemorrhoids in laser group.
conclusionLaser treatment is mostly superior to traditional surgery for hemorrhoids in inflammatory bowel patients.
