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

objectiveTo investigate feasibility and safety of stent implantation technique through percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG)-like pathway for treatment of malignant gastroduodenal obstructions.

methodsTwelve patients with malignant gastroduodenal obstructions accepted PEG-like operations. A stent implantation pathway was established in abdominal wall under endoscopic guide. A guide wire and a stent release device were introduced through this pathway followed by an intestinal stent implantation. After operation, efficacy and safety of this technique were assessed by collecting data such as operation time, complications, postoperative medication, and hospitalization time during postoperative 2-12 months of follow-up.

resultsTwelve patients were successfully treated with stent implantation technique through PEG-like pathway for the first time. The average operation time was 31 minutes. No severe complications occurred during treatment. On the fourth days after operation, patents were give liquid diet and treatment of rehydration, acid suppression, hemostasis and anti-inflammation. The average hospitalization time was 5 days. The follow-up time was 2-12 months. Twelve (100%) patients achieved complete remissions. The stent related complications and obstruction did not appear within 2 months after operations. The quality of life improved significantly.

conclusionThe stent implantation technique through PEG-like pathway for treatment of malignant gastroduodenal obstruction is a feasible, effective, and safe choice.
