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

Background: Tissue handling is one of the pivotal parts of surgical procedures. We aimed to elucidate the characteristics of experts' left-hand during laparoscopic tissue dissection. Methods: Participants performed tissue dissection around the porcine aorta. The grasping force/point of the grasping forceps were measured using custom-made sensor forceps, and the forceps location was also recorded by motion capture system (Mocap). According to the global operative assessment of laparoscopic skills (GOALS), two experts scored the recorded movies, and based on the mean scores, participants were divided into three groups: novice (<10), intermediate (10≤ to <20), and expert (≤20). Force-based metrics were compared among the three groups using the Kruskal-Wallis test. Principal component analysis (PCA) using significant metrics was also performed. Results: A total of 42 trainings were successfully recorded. The statistical test revealed that novices frequently regrasped a tissue (median total number of grasps, novices: 268.0 times, intermediates: 89.5, experts: 52.0, Conclusion: The present results revealed experts' left-hand characteristics, including correct tissue grasping, sufficient tissue traction from the aorta, and stable traction angle. Our next challenge is the provision of immediate and visual feedback onsite after the present wet-lab training, and shortening the learning curve of trainees.
