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

backgroundSurgical treatment for remnant gastric cancer is related to high mortality and morbidity. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors that predispose to postoperative complications after gastrectomy for remnant gastric cancer.

methodsA total of 210 patients who underwent a gastrectomy for remnant gastric cancer between January 1998 and December 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. Surgical complications were reviewed and graded using the Clavien-Dindo classification. Univariate and multivariate analysis was performed to identify the risk factors for development of complications.

resultsThe incidence of postoperative complications was 46% (96/210), and major complications occurred in 14% (30/210). The operation-related mortality rate was 1.0%. Multivariate analysis revealed that only a BMI ≥25 (P = 0.001) and blood transfusion (P < 0.001) were significant independent risk factors for major complication. Indication for the initial gastrectomy and previous anastomosis type were not related to the development of surgical complications.

conclusionsAlthough surgery for remnant gastric cancer is a complex procedure because of the previous operation, factors related to the previous operation do not affect the development of postoperative complications.
