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

Marginal ulcer (MU) is an occasional complication after gastric bypass which can occur early or late after surgery. In this study, we evaluated the incidence, clinical presentation, and endoscopic behavior of patients with late MU. Five hundred fifty morbidly obese patients were evaluated prospectively performing an endoscopic study 1-8 years after surgery. They were submitted either to laparotomic (n = 392) or laparoscopic (n = 158) approach. Six patients (1%) presented late MU 12 to 84 months after surgery. Four patients had single ulcer, while two patients had multiple ulcers. All were treated with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Several endoscopic evaluations were performed in each patient showing healing and no recurrence of the ulcer. Late MU occurs in a small proportion (1%) of patients submitted to gastric bypass. It can be single or multiple. Medical treatment with PPIs achieves healing at a mean time of 7 months. Several endoscopic evaluations should be performed in these patients in order to demonstrate healing of the ulcer and no recurrence.
