A Comparison between Total Abdominal Hysterectomy versus Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy.
Article in Gynecology and minimally invasive therapy. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Objectives: To compare the operative and postoperative outcomes of total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) and total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH). Materials and Methods: In this retrospective comparative study, we reviewed all hysterectomies performed in the Al-Karak Governmental Hospital in Al-Karak, Jordan, from September 2018 to July 2022. We enrolled 129 patients who underwent hysterectomy. The patients were divided into the TLH ( Results: The most common indication for TLH was uterine fibroid, and that for TAH was abnormal uterine bleeding, although the specimen weights were comparable. There was no significant between-group difference in the patient's demographics. Although the TLH group had longer operative time, the hospital stay was shorter and there were no reported cases of wound infection. The estimated blood loss was significantly lower in the TLH group than in the TAH group, but there was no difference between the two groups in terms of blood transfusion requirement and postoperative hemoglobin level. Conclusion: TLH and TAH had comparable overall outcomes in the Al-Karak Governmental Hospital. However, TLH was superior to TAH in terms of blood loss, and patients with TLH recovered faster without postoperative wound infection.
