Antecolic reconstruction is a predictor of the occurrence of roux stasis syndrome after distal gastrectomy.

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.
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
backgroundRoux-en-Y reconstruction after distal gastrectomy can result in delayed gastric emptying, called Roux stasis syndrome (RSS). The cause of RSS has not been completely identified. This study retrospectively investigated the development of RSS.
methodsBetween April 2008 and March 2014, we performed 138 procedures with distal gastrectomy using Roux-en-Y reconstruction. The development of RSS was analyzed and examined for correlations with the length of the operation, amount of blood loss, and surgical procedure.
resultsRSS was observed in 16 of the 138 patients. There were no relationships between the length of the operation or amount of blood loss and the development of RSS according to the Mann-Whitney U test. There were also no significant differences in the development of RSS between the patients treated with laparotomy and laparoscopic surgery, end-to-side, side-to-side, or end-to-end anastomosis or isoperistaltic or antiperistaltic anastomosis, as determined using the chi-square test. However, the development of RSS tended to lower in the patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery, side-to-side anastomosis, and isoperistaltic anastomosis. In addition, there was a significant difference between the patients who received antecolic and retrocolic reconstruction (p=0.005).
conclusionsOur findings suggest that antecolic reconstruction correlates with a lower likelihood of developing RSS.
