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

Minimally invasive surgery is increasingly being applied in selected cases of ovarian borderline tumors and ovarian cancer. With the introduction of the da Vinci SP (SP) system, our institution began robot-assisted vNOTES (RAvNOTES) in 2023. This approach may overcome the limitations of conventional vNOTES, particularly limited triangulation (Lowenstein et al., 2020, Hurni et al., 2022, Hurni and Huber, 2023). We describe staging surgery for a suspected ovarian borderline tumor, performed using RAvNOTES.
