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

backgroundWe herein report a case of a bronchogenic cyst arising from the esophagogastric junction treated by laparoscopic full-thickness extirpation. The full-thickness defect was closed by hand sewing a T-shaped line over the gastroendoscope as a bougie to prevent postoperative deformity or stenosis. Partial fundoplication (Toupet fundoplication) was added to prevent reflux. CASE PRESENTATION: A 32-year-old woman with a body mass index of 43 kg/m(2) was admitted for treatment of a cyst-forming submucosal tumor (60 mm in diameter) on the anterior wall of the esophagogastric junction, which was detected during screening endoscopy before bariatric surgery. The tumor was an extraluminal growing type but exhibited severe erosion at the mucosal site. A cystic tumor such as a duplication cyst, bronchogenic cyst, or cyst-forming gastrointestinal stromal tumor was suspected, and the abovementioned surgery was carried out. The postoperative course was uneventful. The pathological findings revealed the tumor to be a benign bronchogenic cyst. Endoscopic examination 3 months postoperatively showed no deformity or stenosis, and the patient complained of no reflux symptoms.

conclusionThis procedure may be an efficient option for treatment of submucosal tumors on the esophagogastric junction to maintain function or avoid excessive surgery.
