Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric bypass utilizing the triple stapling technique.
Article in JSLS : Journal of the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveTo evaluate the outcomes of a single surgeon's experience with laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) utilizing the triple stapling technique for creation of the jejunojejunostomy.
methodsA retrospective review of patients who underwent LRYGB utilizing the triple stapling technique for creation of the jejunojejunostomy (JJ) between 10/01 and 12/04 was performed.
resultsLRYGB was performed in 435 consecutive patients. The mean age was 41 years (range, 14 to 68), and 82% were female. Mean initial body mass index was 50 (range, 35 to 91). One conversion to open (0.2%) was necessary. Mean operating time was 144+/-26 minutes. Mean length of stay was 2.3+/-1.5 days. There were 3 leaks at the gastrojejunostomy anastomosis (0.7%). No leaks occurred at the JJ anastomosis. One patient underwent revision of the JJ (0.2%) secondary to obstruction of the JJ on upper gastrointestinal study. Intraluminal bleeding occurred in 21 patients (4.8%). Patients required blood transfusion of 2.2+/-1.1 units (range, 0 to 5), but none required surgical or endoscopic intervention. Mortality occurred in 2 patients (0.5%). Mean excess body weight loss was 72% at 1 year.
conclusionConstruction of the jejunojejunostomy utilizing the triple stapling technique is expeditious, safe, and associated with minimal complication.
