Lindgren 1995.

Methods	Randomised clinical trial.
Participants	Country: Finland. Number randomised: 25. Mean age: 49 years. Females: 22 (88%). Inclusion criteria: Elective cholecystectomy ASA I or II.
Interventions	Participants were randomly assigned to two groups: Group 1: abdominal wall lift with or without pneumoperitoneum (pressure not stated) (n = 12). Group 2: pneumoperitoneum with 12 to 15 mm Hg pressure (n = 13). Device used for abdominal lift: intra‐peritoneal device.
Outcomes	The main outcome measure was operating time.
Notes	Attempts were made to contact the author in February 2007 as besides missing data, a conference abstract publication with 24 patients was identified. Reading through the text, we could assume that the published conference abstract had presented data on the same trial. However the conference abstract did not report any outcomes of interest and the inclusion or exclusion of the abstract makes no difference to any of the effect estimates.
