Electrophysiological stimulation is associated with improved lower-extremity venous hemodynamics and postoperative recovery following laparoscopic nephrectomy.

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
Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common and potentially serious complication following laparoscopic nephrectomy. Conventional preventive measures are limited by bleeding risk and poor compliance. Electrophysiological stimulation therapy has emerged as a non-invasive approach to improve venous circulation, but its perioperative efficacy remains unclear. Methods: This prospective, non-randomized controlled study included 108 patients undergoing laparoscopic nephrectomy. Patients were allocated to a control group ( Results: Compared with the control group, the observation group showed significantly higher postoperative venous blood flow velocities in the popliteal, posterior tibial, and fibular veins (all Conclusion: Electrophysiological stimulation therapy was associated with improved venous hemodynamics and postoperative recovery following laparoscopic nephrectomy and may serve as a useful adjunct to routine perioperative thromboprophylaxis.
