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

backgroundSelf-expandable metallic stents are used widely to relieve malignant gastric outlet obstruction (GOO). However, restenosis or migration of first stents is a frequent complication. The purpose of this retrospective cohort study was to evaluate the effectiveness of second stents as an approach to manage failure of first stents in patients with malignant GOO.

methodsA total of 222 patients with gastric cancer received first stents due to inoperable GOO at National Cancer Center in Korea between January 2008 and June 2011. Monthly follow-up interviews were performed, and second stents (stent-in-stent or stent-after-migration) were inserted in 59 patients by June 2012. Technical and clinical successes and long-term complications were evaluated.

resultsThe technical and immediate clinical success rates were 98.3 % (58/59) and 91.5 % (54/59), respectively. Patients who received a second stent due to late complications involving the first stent (migration, restenosis, and fracture) showed a higher clinical success rate (95.8 % [46/48]) than patients who received a second stent due to immediate clinical failure of the first stent (72.7 % [8/11], p = 0.04). The immediate clinical success rate of stent-after-migration (100 % [11/11]) was not different from that of stent-in-stent (89.6 % [43/48], p = 1.0). The stent dysfunction rate of stent-after-migration (27.3 % [3/11]) also was similar to that of stent-in-stent (29.2 % [14/48], p = 1.0). The median patencies of stent-in-stent and stent-after-migration were 27.4 and 58.4 weeks, respectively (p = 0.177). There were no significant prognostic factors for patency of second stents.

conclusionsInsertion of a second stent is effective for treating the first-stent failure in gastric cancer patients with GOO, especially if the immediate outcome of the first stent was successful.
