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

Surgical errors in Roux limb reconstruction are not reported widely. A young male who underwent hepaticojejunostomy after biliary injury developed acute obstruction of the proximal jejunum. Barium study revealed the O configuration of alimentary limb-'O' sign. At laparotomy, he was found to have the alimentary limb joining on to itself and without any connection with the biliary limb. The O loop complex was resected, and Roux-en-Y construction was refashioned. He made an uneventful recovery and is well at one year follow-up. We have reviewed the literature and propose a classification system for such type of errors. Every effort should be made to prevent this complication.
