Revisional laparoscopic antireflux surgery after unsuccessful endoscopic fundoplication.
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
backgroundTransoral incisionless fundoplication (TIF), a novel endoscopic procedure for treating gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), currently is under evaluation. In case of treatment failure, subsequent revisional laparoscopic antireflux surgery (rLARS) may be required. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and outcomes of revisional antireflux surgery after previous endoscopic fundoplication.
methodsChronic GERD patients who underwent rLARS after a previous TIF procedure were included in the study. Pre- and postoperative assessment included GERD-related quality-of-life scores, proton pump inhibitor (PPI) usage, 24-h pH-metry, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, and registration of adverse events.
resultsRevisional laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication was feasible for all 15 patients included in the study without conversions to open surgery. Acid exposure of the distal esophagus improved significantly after rLARS, and esophagitis, PPI usage, and hiatal hernia decreased. Quality of life did not improve significantly after rLARS, and 33 % of the patients experienced dysphagia.
conclusionRevisional laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication was feasible and safe after unsuccessful endoscopic fundoplication, resulting in objective reflux control at the cost of a relatively high rate of dysphagia.
