Patient and surgeon predictors of achieving the critical view of safety in laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a prospective cohort study.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Introduction: The Critical View of Safety (CVS) is a cornerstone of safe laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), aimed at minimizing the risk of bile duct injury (BDI). However, consistent achievement of CVS remains a challenge in surgical practice. The primary outcome of this study was to assess the rate of CVS achievement and to identify patient, disease and surgeon related predictors. Methods: A prospective cohort of 150 patients undergoing LC was analyzed. Demographic data, preoperative risk factors, intraoperative variables, and surgeon characteristics were examined. CVS assessment was performed using Strasberg's criteria. Binary logistic regression and Chi-squared test were used to identify independent predictors of CVS achievement. Results: The rate of CVS achievement in this study was 69.6% among consultants and 60.0% among residents. Logistic regression identified ASA grade I ( Conclusion: Both preoperative and intraoperative factors can influence a surgeon's ability to achieve CVS. In our study, lower ASA grade, emergency cholecystectomies, acute cholecystitis and operations performed by non-HPB surgeons were associated with a higher likelihood of achieving CVS. Standardized protocols and structured training may help improve CVS documentation across practice settings.
