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

purposeTo propose the 10 As decalogue technique, a structured framework for surgical bedside rounding.

methodsThis narrative review and perspective piece presents a descriptive model for bedside rounding, designed for implementation in university hospitals. Literature review was done in MEDLINE via PubMed up to May 2025, using both free terms and Medical Subject Headings related to medical education, clinical rounds, and surgical training. The technique was developed based on clinical and educational principles, addressing both surgical and academic needs.

resultsThe decalogue consists of the following steps: anticipation, assistant team presentation, authorization, (self)appraisal, assessment, alerts, advice, agreement, annotation, and afterwards. It facilitates comprehensive case discussion, improves trainee clinical skills, and fosters empathy and trust in patient interactions. It addresses time constraints by prioritizing critical cases and enhances learning through debriefing and feedback. Challenges include managing time for multiple patients and ensuring patient comfort during public discussions, mitigated by clear authorization and sensitive communication.

conclusionThe 10 As decalogue is an effective tool for surgical bedside rounding, promoting resident education, reducing errors, and enhancing patient involvement. Its structured approach is particularly suited for academic settings, with adaptability to balance educational and clinical demands.
