Lymphedema in Patients Undergoing Surgery for Endometrial Cancer: A Comparative Study of Sentinel Node Biopsy Versus Complete Pelvic Node Dissection.
Article in Journal of obstetrics and gynaecology of India, 2025. 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
Objective: To study the incidence of lymphedema in patients undergoing surgery for endometrial cancer and to see whether sentinel node mapping and biopsy results in reduced rates of lymphedema compared to PLND. Methods: A retrospective single institution analysis including all patients who underwent surgery with nodal assessment for proven or suspected endometrial cancer between January 2010 and July 2021. Patients without 1-year postoperative follow-up were excluded from analysis. Data were obtained from electronic medical records. Each hemipelvis was considered a unit of study. SPSS v.20 was used for statistical analysis. Results: Of the 816 hemipelvises in 408 patients, 486 underwent SLNB and 330 PLND.Mean age of SLNB group was younger (57 y and 59.8 y, Conclusion: The present study shows that SLNB is associated with substantially reduced incidence of lymphedema with significantly lower operative time and blood loss.
