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

The correct suture technique for anastomoses of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is a major task in the daily practice of surgery and a basic requirement for a successful operation. This article provides an overview of the surgical principles and techniques involved in the creation of intestinal anastomoses, including the differentiated use of various suturing aids in the GI tract. Hand sewn and stapled anastomotic techniques are illustrated and discussed. The ongoing discussion and question as to which technique is best for GI anastomoses remains unanswered as there is no obligatory standard, even though the requirements are well defined. An ideal anastomosis should fulfil the following criteria: it must be well vascularized, safe, tension-free and spillage from the operation field should be avoided.
