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

backgroundSince Wittgrove introduced the laparoscopic version of the gastric bypass in 1994, the interest still remains in the decrease of the abdominal wall trauma in order to optimize the benefits of laparoscopy on postoperative pain, cosmesis, hospital stay, and convalescence in bariatric patients. This work is to report the feasibility of gastric bypass surgery by a pure transumbilical single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) with a mechanical circular gastrojejunal anastomosis.

methodsThirty-four patients (10 males and 24 females) were offered to receive gastric bypass with circular mechanical gastrojejunal anastomosis by Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS) using pure transumbilical access. Anastomotic leak occurrence was the primary end-point. Patients demographics, operative time, additional trocarts, hemorrhage, intra abdominal abscess, length of post-operative stay, readmission, 30 days death, gastrojejunal anastomosis stricture, marginal ulcers, reflux complains, seromas, incisional hernias, and % excess BMI loss were also recorded in a prospective database.

resultsPrimary end-point showed no anastomotic leak occurrence during the hospital stay or during the first 30 post-operative days. SILS gastric bypass with a circular mechanical gastrojejunal anastomosis is feasible and seems to be safe.
