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

objectiveWe aimed to evaluate the feasibility of a mini-laparoscopic surgical approach versus standard laparoscopy.

methods75 patients with endometrial cancer treated by mini-laparoscopic (n=25) or conventional laparoscopic surgery (n=50) at a tertiary-care university-based teaching hospital and academic affiliated private hospital were included.

resultsThere was no significant difference between the mini-laparoscopy and the conventional laparoscopy group regarding surgical procedures. The mean operation time and the median estimated blood loss were similar (p=0.671 and p=0.158, respectively). No difference was found in terms of the number of lymph nodes removed. No intraoperative complications were observed in both groups. Return to daily routine and the rate of additional analgesia requirement were similar in the groups. The mean duration of hospitalization was 3.6±1.2 days in the mini-laparoscopy group and 4.9±3.6 days in the conventional laparoscopy group (p=0.025).

conclusionWe demonstrated that mini-laparoscopic staging could be a competent technique performed regardless of harm by talented surgeons using state-of-the-art instruments. Mini-laparoscopic surgery appears to be a further possibility to minimize surgical trauma by reducing the size of the ports without decreasing the extent and effectiveness of the procedures.
