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

Determine procedure and patient outcome differences between multiport robotic-assisted cholecystectomies and single port robotic assisted cholecystectomies. We are retrospectively comparing clinical data from patients that have received cholecystectomy procedure using DaVinci XI (MPC) and SP (SPC) by two surgeons between December 2021 and April 2023. There was a total of 119 patients; 99 patients underwent robotic-assisted multiport cholecystectomy using DaVinci XI (MPC) and 20 patients underwent robotic-assisted single port cholecystectomy using DaVinci SP (SPC). Patient data including demographics, robotic operation time and postoperative complications were collected retrospectively and analyzed using unpaired t-test with p-value < 0.05. The comparison will focus on patient demographics, robotic procedure time, post-operative complications between the two patient groups, multiport robotic-assisted cholecystectomy and single port robotic-assisted cholecystectomy. There were no intraoperative or postoperative complications in all 119 patient procedures. There was no significant difference between active procedure time between multiport DaVinci XI and single port DaVinci SP (14.78 ± 9.7, 11.75 ± 3.16 (p = 0.386). The non significance decreases in active procedure time and no intraoperative, postoperative complications suggest single port cholecystectomy can be considered as a safe option for robotic-assisted cholecystectomy and should be considered as an alternative for patients especially for cosmetic appeal. This study was reviewed and granted exemption under TUC IRB Review Board (# M-1324).
