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

We herein report our experience in performing a laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy involving standard lymph node dissection for a patient with early gastric cancer and situs inversus. A superficial elevated lesion was found on the posterior wall of the antrum. The preoperative diagnosis was cStage IA (cT1, cN0, cH0, cP0, cM0). A laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy with standard lymph node dissection (D1 + beta) for early gastric cancer was successfully performed by shifting the monitor to the right and left, and by applying sufficient care and time. The course of blood vessels was not abnormal except for the right/left inversion. Billroth I reconstruction was performed through a delta-shaped anastomosis. The postoperative course was favorable and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 12. Based on a histopathological examination, a 5.0 x 5.0-cm, mucosal, poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma (pT1, pN0, sH0, sP0, sM0, Stage IA) was diagnosed.
