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
purposeThis study introduces an intracorporeal Pringle maneuver (PM) using He’s belt for laparoscopic hepatectomy.
methodsHe’s belt, a silicone belt featuring a hole in the tail and eight cogs in the body, was placed in the abdominal cavity. The head and body of He’s belt were pulled out through the tail hole to form a ring encircling the hepatoduodenal ligament. We conducted laparoscopic hepatectomy with PM maneuver by He’s belt for 47 patients between January 2024 and June 2024.
resultThe PM maneuver using He’s belt can be easily performed, adjusted, and released without requiring additional Hemoclips. For the 47 patients, the median operative time was 121 min. The median Pringle time was 21 min. The median blood loss was 50 ml. None of the patients required intraoperative blood transfusion.
conclusionThe PM maneuver using He’s belt is a safe, convenient, and self-adjustable method that provides effective inflow control for laparoscopic hepatectomy.
