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

BACKGROUND AND

aimStaple line complications and axial rotation of the gastric tube after sleeve gastrectomy are well-recognized complications of the procedure. The present study aims to investigate the role of staple line inversion and distal fixation to the transverse mesocolon in reducing these complications. PATIENTS AND

methodsThis is a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data of 252 patients with morbid obesity who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). Patients were subdivided into two groups: group I comprising 124 patients did not have distal sleeve fixation and group II comprising 128 patients underwent staple line inversion and distal fixation.

resultsPatients were 171 females and 81 males with a mean age of 33.2 ± 8.7 years and a mean preoperative body mass index (BMI) of 50.9 ± 8.6 Kg/m

conclusionStaple line inversion and distal fixation to the transverse mesocolon can be a simple, effective strategy to prevent staple line bleeding, and gastric axial rotation, though it prolonged the operative time of LSG.
