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

backgroundIn the treatment of esophageal cancer neoadjuvant radiotherapy often leads to vascular damage of the usual recipient arteries for free jejunal transfer. End-to-side anastomosis to the carotid artery could be a potential alternative. PATIENTS AND

methodsA total of 70 patients with locally advanced carcinoma of the esophagus underwent esophagectomy after neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy. In all patients reconstruction was carried out with a free jejunal transfer. Smaller vessels could be used for anastomoses in 54 of these patients and in 16 cases the jejunal flap artery was attached to the carotid artery.

resultsOut of 54 patients 9 (17%) with microvascular anastomoses to the smaller vessels needed surgical intervention for ischemia. In 16 patients with anastomosis to the carotid artery no significant failure of perfusion occurred.

conclusionThe carotid artery as recipient vessel in free jejunal transfer seems to be a safe therapeutic option for intestinal reconstruction of preradiated esophageal cancer with good functional results.
