Advanced Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy with magnetic compressive anastomats in obstructive jaundice dog models.
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundAlthough commonly used procedure, Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy (RYHJ) remains to be complicated, time consuming, and has a relatively poor prognosis. We designed the magnetic compressive anastomats (MCAs) to perform RYHJ more efficiently and safely. MATERIALS AND
methods36 dogs were divided into two groups randomly. After obstructive jaundice model construction, RYHJ was performed with MCAs in study group or by hand-sewn in control group. Both groups were followed for 1, 3, and 6 months after RYHJ. The liver function and postoperative complications were recorded throughout the follow-up. At the end of each time point, dogs were sent for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and sacrificed. Anastomotic samples were taken for anastomotic narrowing rate calculation, histological analyses, tensile strength testing, and hydroxyproline content testing.
resultsThe anastomotic construction times were 44.20 ± 23.02 min in study group, compared of 60.53 ± 11.89 min in control group (p < 0.05). The liver function recovered gradually after RYHJ in both groups (p > 0.05). All anastomats were expelled out of the body in 8.81 ± 2.01 days. The gross incidence of morbidity and mortality was 33.3% (6/18) and 16.7% (3/18) in study group compared with 38.9% (7/18) and 22.2% (4/18) in control group (p > 0.05), and there is no single case of anastomotic-specific complications happened in study group. The narrowing rates of anastomosis were 14.6, 18.5, and 18.7% in study group compared with 35.4, 36.9, and 34% in control group at 1st, 3rd, and 6th month after RYHJ (p < 0.05). In study group, preciser alignment of tissue layers and milder inflammatory reaction contributed to the fast and better wound healing process.
conclusionPerform RYHJ with MCAs is safer, more efficient than by hand-sewn method in obstructive jaundice dog models.
