The visualization of gastro-esophageal junction vascular supply during a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Role of a new device.
Article in Updates in surgery, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Leaks arising at the level of gastro-esophageal junction remain a major complication in patients who undergo a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Besides technical pitfalls, these fistulas are mainly attributable to tissue ischemia following the preparation of the gastric sleeve, explained by the irregular vascularization often present in the area of the gastro-esophageal junction. This video presentation shows how, the utilization of a new model of bougie can be of help in preventing a leak, allowing a better visualization of the particular vascular anatomy present at the level of the gastro-esophageal junction area. Currently, 25/334 (18 F-7 M) (7.4%) patients, who underwent a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy at our institution, were operated on using this new model of bougie. No leaks have been so far reported.
