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

backgroundLaparoscopic partial splenectomy (LPS) is an effective method for resecting benign splenic lesions while maintaining physiological splenic function. PATIENT AND

methodsA 66-year-old female patient with a 7.3 cm cyst in the upper pole of the spleen underwent preoperative evaluation with computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Our LPS protocol proceeded as follows: (1) splenic ligament and short gastric vessels are divided using hemlock clips, (2) anatomical identification of segmental vessels supplying the upper pole, (3) parenchymal pre-dissection along ischemic demarcation line, and (4) combined use of ultrasonic dissection and sequential stapling for parenchymal transection.

resultsThe procedure was completed in 145 min with minimal blood loss (50 mL). No intraoperative complications or blood transfusions were required. The patient was discharged on the fourth postoperative day without complications. Pathological examination confirmed the complete removal of a benign mesothelial cyst.

conclusionsThe stapler-assisted LPS technique enhances the safety and efficiency of LPS by minimizing intraoperative hemorrhage and streamlining the parenchymal transection process.
