Petersen's hernia after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y reconstruction for gastric cancer.
Trial report in Gastric cancer : official journal of the International Gastric Cancer Association and the Japanese Gastric Cancer Association, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 36 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
backgroundTo decrease the incidence of internal hernia after laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, recent recommendations indicated closure of mesenteric defects and Petersen's defect. Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer is used increasingly, so the incidence of Petersen's hernia can also increase, but the trend has not been studied.
methodsThis study retrospectively reviewed 358 consecutive patients who underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer at one institution, with antecolic Roux-en-Y (RY) reconstruction.
resultsPetersen's hernia occurred in 6 (2.2 %) of 268 patients whose Petersen's defect was not closed by a mean of 351 days after surgery. All the patients underwent reoperation with reduction and repair of the hernia except the first case. In 90 subsequent cases, with closure of the Petersen's defect, internal hernias did not occur (0/90 cases; p = 0.06). Focusing on the totally laparoscopic procedure, Petersen's hernia occurred in 2 (5.1 %) of 39 patients, whereas in 81 subsequent cases, with closure of Petersen's defect, internal hernias did not occur (0/81 cases; p = 0.03).
conclusionsBased on the recent recommendations for bariatric surgery, closure of this potential hernia defect is necessary after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with R-Y reconstruction for gastric cancer.
