Application of rules 1 to 6 for maximizing government infrastructure utilization in laparoscopic cholecystectomy: A case series analysis.
Article in Bioinformation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the gold standard treatment for gallstone disease, but long waiting lists are common in India due to high disease prevalence and limited government resources. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate a two-operation room (OR) model to optimise resource utilisation, in which patient preparation in one OR was overlapped with surgical steps in another OR. A total of 64 patients were operated on over three days, with an average operative time of 24.45 minutes per case; significantly more surgeries were completed in 6 hours with the new model (21.3 cases) compared to routine practice (6.3 cases in 8 hours, p <0.05). Most patients were female (98%), with a mean age of 44.8 years and operative times ranged from 9 to 55 minutes. The "1-6 rule" (1 consultant, 2 ORs, 3 assistants, 4 anaesthetists, 5 nursing/support staff and 6 hours of surgery) may be an innovative policy strategy for maximising LC efficiency in government hospitals.
