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

Minimally invasive surgery is complex and prone to variation not routinely objectively measured. We established an association between skills and patient outcomes. The evolving application of artificial intelligence techniques could assist intraoperative analysis. In this study, we analysed 77 rectal cancer operations' videos from a multicentre RCT that were recorded unedited and underwent blinded manual analysis using a validated, bespoke performance assessment tool (LapTMEpt) and the Objective Clinical Human Reliability Analysis (OCHRA). The OCHRA methodology involved segmentation of the 77 operations and manually annotating each case for the enacted errors and near misses. We provide a detailed description of the errors and near misses of over 380 hours of video analysis, containing 1377 errors. This dataset can inform machine learning to assist progress toward a fully automated, objective assessment of surgical skills.
