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

Operative video review is increasingly being recognized as a valuable tool in surgical education. By providing an objective and reproducible record of intraoperative performance, video review allows trainees and educators to revisit technical maneuvers, decision-making, communication, and operative flow in ways not possible through memory alone. Beyond identifying errors, video analysis can help reveal the subtle cognitive and technical behaviors that characterize surgical expertise. Video-based assessment also offers the potential for more objective evaluation of surgical competency and deliberate practice. As digital technologies and artificial intelligence continue to evolve, operative video review may become an increasingly important component of modern surgical training. Its successful implementation, however, will require careful attention to confidentiality, psychological safety, and educational culture.
