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

backgroundLaparoscopic fenestration is a common treatment for hepatic cysts, but postoperative recurrence and complications remain concerns.

aimTo evaluate suturing the liver's round ligament to the cyst wall after laparoscopic fenestration for hepatic cysts.

methodsThis retrospective case series study involved patients who underwent the novel surgical technique at the Second People's Hospital of Changzhou, affiliated with Nanjing Medical University, between December 2022 and March 2024. The perioperative indicators observed included operative duration, intraoperative blood loss, the occurrence of bile leakage or hemorrhage within the drainage fluid, and the duration of hospital confinement.

resultsFifteen patients were included. The surgeries were successfully completed laparoscopically, with a mean operative duration of 75.0 ± 15.4 minutes and minimal intraoperative blood loss. No major complications, such as significant bleeding, bile leakage, or intra-abdominal infections, were reported. The follow-up period, ranging from 3 months to 12 months, revealed a cure rate of 40.0% and a total efficacy rate of 100%, with no cases deemed ineffective.

conclusionSuturing the free pedicled round ligament to the cyst wall after laparoscopic fenestration is feasible and effective, with promising cure rates.
