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

objectiveLaparoscopic adrenalectomy is standard in adults, but evidence in children remains limited. This study describes a standardised transperitoneal laparoscopic adrenal compartment resection technique and evaluates its safety, reproducibility and outcomes.

methodsAll paediatric patients undergoing transperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy at our centre from 2022 to 2025 were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical and intraoperative data were collected. Procedures were standardised with lateral positioning, three to four subcostal trocars and dissection along embryological avascular planes, avoiding direct gland manipulation.

resultsEleven patients were included, median age 4.3 years. Nine had neuroblastic tumours and two had adrenocortical tumours. Mean tumour volume was 197 cm

conclusionsStandardised laparoscopic adrenal compartment resection is safe and reproducible in selected paediatric patients, feasible even in IDRF-positive tumours. Exclusive dissection along avascular embryological planes ensures oncological radicality, maintaining minimally invasive benefits.
