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

To analyze the risk factors of complications after laparoscopic cholecystectomy in 478 patients in our hospital.

methodsThe clinical data of 478 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy in our hospital from March 2018 to September 2022 were collected, and the occurrence of postoperative complications and related risk factors were analyzed.

resultsA total of 36 patients (7.53%) had complications, including 9 cases (1.88%) of abdominal hemorrhage, 8 cases (1.67%) of bile duct injury, and 19 cases (3.97%) of biliary fistula. Univariate analysis showed that adhesions of Calot triangle, anatomical variation and gallbladder wall thickness greater than 5 mm were associated with postoperative complications (all P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that: Calot triangle adhesion (OR = 3.041, 95%CI = 1.422-6.507), anatomical variation (OR = 4.368, 95%CI = 1.764-10.813) and gallbladder wall thickening (OR = 2.827, 95%CI = 1.422-6.507). 95%CI = 1.274-6.275) were independent risk factors for complications after laparoscopic cholecystectomy (all P < 0.05).

conclusionIn order to reduce the occurrence of postoperative complications, the risk factors of LC should be well understood and the preoperative preparation should be made.
