Patient awareness and attitudes towards minimally invasive surgery.
Article in Bioinformation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has brought significant advancements in surgical practices. However, patient awareness and attitudes towards MIS are not well-documented in community health settings like Muzaffarpur and Bihar. This study aims to evaluate the factors among patients to improve understanding and acceptance of MIS in these settings. The study involved 350 adult patients visiting the outpatient department. A structured questionnaire assessed participants' awareness, attitudes and perceptions of MIS. The study underscores the need for enhanced patient education and communication strategies regarding MIS, especially in community health settings. Tailored educational programs can potentially bridge the gap between advancements in surgical techniques and patient awareness, fostering informed healthcare decisions.
