Reinforcing the staple line during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy: prospective randomized clinical study comparing two different techniques. Preliminary results.
Trial report in Obesity surgery, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 37 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundSleeve gastrectomy involves the creation of small gastric reservoir based on lesser curvature of the stomach, which is fashioned by a longitudinal gastrectomy that preserves the antrum and pylorus together with its vagal innervation. The main complications in the early postoperative course are bleeding and gastric leak. In order to reduce these complications the staple line can be reinforced in many different ways. The purpose of this study was to randomly compare two different techniques in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG): buttressing the staple line at the gastroesophageal junction (angle of Hiss) with Gore Seamguard and staple-line suturing with PDS 2.0.
methodsBetween July 2009 and July 2010, 90 patients were prospectively and randomly enrolled in the two different techniques of handling the staple line during LSG. Forty-eight of these patients belonged in group A (application of Gore Seamguard) and 42 in group B (application of a continuous suture). Operative and postoperative complications were recorded.
resultsPostoperative leak affected two patients in group A (4.2%) and bleeding occurred in one patient of group A (2%). Total complication rate was 6.2% for group A. No major surgical complication occurred in group B. The differences between the two groups did not reach statistical significance.
conclusionsNo significant difference is evidenced in terms of bleeding and postoperative leak between the two techniques of enhancing the staple line in LSG. Suturing of the staple line may be more time consuming but costs are considerably less.
