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

backgroundKidney transplantation (KT) is a useful treatment option for patients with end-stage chronic kidney disease to avoid dialysis and achieve a good quality of life. In Japan, approximately 90% of kidneys for KT are obtained from living kidney donors. Laparoscopic renal nephrectomy (LDN) is the most commonly performed KT procedure in Japan. We aimed to determine the clinical variables that influence the prolongation of pneumoperitoneum time (PT) in LDN.

methodThis retrospective study was carried out on 218 consecutive patients who underwent LDN at Gifu University Hospital. T The enrolled patients were divided into two groups according to the third quartile of PT in the LDN, with those in the lower third quartile (Q3) as Group 1 and those in the upper Q3 as Group 2. The primary endpoint was identification of predictive factors for prolonged PT.

resultIn total, 178 patients were included in the analysis. For all patients, the median PT, estimated blood loss, and warm ischemic time were 170 min, 20 mL, and 4 min, respectively. Significantly longer PT was observed in Group 2 than in Group 1. Multiple regression analysis results showed that male donors, body mass index ≥ 25 kg/m
