Treatment of hepatic hemangiomas in the era of laparoscopic surgery: Enucleation versus hepatectomy.

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
ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic enucleation versus laparoscopic hepatectomy for hepatic hemangioma using propensity score matching to adjust for confounding factors.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study used data from consecutive patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery for pathologically confirmed hepatic hemangioma at our hospital from January 2019 to December 2023. Patients were divided into laparoscopic hepatectomy and laparoscopic enucleation groups. Propensity score matching (1:1 nearest neighbor matching) was performed to balance the confounding variables. Balance was assessed using standardized mean differences. Perioperative indicators of the matched cohorts were statistically analyzed.ResultsIn total, 100 patients (40 with laparoscopic enucleation and 60 with laparoscopic hepatectomy) were initially included, with 34 pairs (68 patients) successfully matched. Laparoscopic enucleation was associated with superior outcomes in terms of intraoperative blood loss (median (interquartile range): 100.0 (50.0-200.0) mL vs. 400.0 (100.0-600.0) mL,
