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

backgroundSleeve gastrectomy is a bariatric surgical procedure that may result in particular morbidity or mortality due to gastric fistula in the proximal part of the gastric tube. Two theories are currently proposed to explain this specific leak location. The vascular theory attributes the leaks to reduced perfusion in the gastric tube, and the mechanical theory suggests the etiology as gastric tube hyper-pressure due to pyloric conservation. The aim of this study was to map the arterial gastric vascular supply on fresh cadavers after performing sleeve gastrectomy to evaluate the effect of vascular changes on gastric leakage.

methodsWe performed sleeve gastrectomies on 11 cadaveric trunks with a detailed anatomical study of the gastric vascular supply after latex injection in the three branches arising from the celiac trunk.

resultsIn 55 % of cases, the sleeve procedure changed the gastric vascular supply. In 9.1 %, it divided the three left gastric artery branches arising from the lesser curvature. Few changes were noted in the antrum or pylorus.

conclusionsThis anatomical study demonstrates that the vascular supply of the proximal part of the gastric tube can be damaged by a sleeve procedure, which can sever one or more of the branches arising from the left gastric artery. Such weakness could be exacerbated by disparities in vascular supply. The uninterrupted vascular supply of the antrum and pylorus may explain the preferential localization of the fistula to the proximal part of the gastric tube.
