Robot-assisted laparoscopic gastrectomy for Menetrier's disease.
Article in Journal of robotic surgery, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Menetrier's disease, also known as hypoproteinemic hypertrophic gastropathy, is a rare condition characterized by the presence of gastric hypertrophy with foveolar infiltration that replaces the normal glandular architecture. We present a case of a 65-year-old female patient who had epigastric pain after meals which progressed to oral intolerance and weight loss. Upper endoscopy was performed showing prominent folds in the gastric mucosa and stenosis at the antrum-pylorus. Biopsy was taken and showed foveolar reactive hyperplasia and reactive glandular epithelium changes suggestive of Menetrier's disease. An abdominopelvic CT was performed showing a dilated stomach and gastric wall thickening. The patient was taken into the operation room for a robot-assisted total gastrectomy with esophagus-jejunum anastomosis. The patient's progress was satisfactory and he was discharged on the eighth postoperative day. Robot-assisted laparoscopic gastrectomy is a feasible and safe option that facilitates the performance of complex procedures.
