Reduced-port laparoscopic right colonic resection with D3 lymph node dissection and transvaginal specimen extraction (NOSES VIIIa) for right colon cancer: clinical features.
Article in Techniques in coloproctology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundReduced-port laparoscopic surgery (RPLS) uses the minimum possible number of ports or small-sized ports in laparoscopic surgery. The combination of RPLS and natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) minimizes the procedural damage.
methodsA total of 17 patients diagnosed with right colon cancer were included: 5 patients in the RPLS + NOSE group and 12 patients in the conventional laparoscopic surgery (CL) + mini-laparotomy (ML) group. We highlight the key steps of the RPLS + NOSE procedure and compare the clinicopathological characteristics and short-term postoperative outcomes of the two groups.
resultsCompared to CL + ML, RPLS + NOSE was associated with short hospitalization (8.80 ± 1.30 vs 13.75 ± 2.63, p = 0.001), faster first flatus (1.80 ± 0.45 vs 3.4 ± 0.90, p = 0.020) and less postoperative pain on the first day (2.40 ± 0.55 vs 4.25 ± 1.60, p = 0.025). Regarding operation time, intraoperative bleeding, tumor size, proximal and distal margin, number of lymph nodes harvested, number of positive lymph nodes, R0 resection, bowel movements, postoperative complications, Clavien-Dindo classification, Benz's classification and postoperative pain on day 1, day 3 and day 5, no significant difference was observed.
conclusionIn selected patients, RPLS with D3 lymph node dissection and transvaginal specimen extraction results in fast recovery and is indicated for colon cancer patients.
