Pneumomediastinum as a complication of robotic-assisted radical nephrectomy: A case report.

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
Background: Pneumomediastinum represents a rare but potentially serious complication of robotic-assisted radical nephrectomy, often resulting from carbon dioxide insufflation during retroperitoneal surgery. Case presentation: Reported here is a case of a 78-year-old female who underwent an uneventful robotic-assisted radical nephrectomy for a right renal mass but presented 5 days postoperatively with shortness of breath and chest discomfort. Imaging confirmed extensive pneumomediastinum without esophageal perforation. She was managed conservatively with oxygen therapy, pain control, and a soft diet, leading to full recovery. Conclusion: Awareness of risk factors, such as a low body mass index, prolonged operative time, and extensive retroperitoneal dissection, is essential for early recognition and management of this rare complication.
