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

aimTo explore the mechanisms of uncut Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy, which is used to decrease the occurrence of Roux stasis syndrome.

methodsThe changes of myoelectric activity, mechanic motility and interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) of the Roux limb after cut or uncut Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy were observed.

resultsWhen compared with the cut group, the amplitude (1.15 +/- 0.15 mV vs 0.48 +/- 0.06 mV, P < 0.05) and frequency (14.4 +/- 1.9 cpm vs 9.5 +/- 1.1 cpm, P < 0.01) of slow waves and the incidence (98.2% +/- 10.4% vs 56.6% +/- 6.4%, P < 0.05) and amplitude (0.58 +/- 0.08 mV vs 0.23 +/- 0.06 mV, P < 0.01) of spike potential of the Roux limb in the uncut group were significantly higher. The migrating myoelectric complexes (MMC) phase III duration in the uncut group was significantly prolonged (6.5 +/- 1.1 min vs 4.4 +/- 0.8 min, P < 0.05), while the MMC cycle obviously shortened (42.5 +/- 6.8 vs 55.3 +/- 8.2 min, P < 0.05). Both gastric emptying rate (65.5% +/- 7.9% vs 49.3% +/- 6.8%, P < 0.01) and intestinal impelling ratio (53.4% +/- 7.4% vs 32.2% +/- 5.4%, P < 0.01) in the uncut group were significantly increased. The contractile force index of the isolated jejunal segment in the uncut group was significantly higher (36.8 +/- 5.1 vs 15.3 +/- 2.2, P < 0.01), and the expression of c-kit mRNA was significantly increased in the uncut group (0.82 +/- 0.11 vs 0.35 +/- 0.06, P < 0.01).

conclusionUncut Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy may lessen the effects of operation on myoelectric activity such as slow waves, spike potential, and MMC, decrease the impairment of gastrointestinal motility, and remarkably increase the expression of c-kit mRNA.
