Off label use of lumen-apposing metal stent for persistent gastro-jejunal anastomotic stricture.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal endoscopy, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
We are reporting a novel "off-label" use of lumen apposing metal stent (LAMS) for management of refractory gastro-jejunal (GJ) anastomotic stricture after Roux-en-y gastric bypass (RYGB). With increasing prevalence of obesity, bariatric surgery is performed more frequently than ever. RYGB is one of the most commonly performed bariatric procedures. GJ anastomotic stricture is a late complication of this procedure. Our patient, seven years after RYGB developed GJ anastomotic ulcer and subsequently a stricture not amendable to repeated pneumatic dilations. Instead of using the conventional fully covered self-expanding metal stent (fcSEMS) we deployed the relatively new LAMS keeping in mind its novel dumbbell shaped design. Our patient's symptoms were controlled successfully and she remained asymptomatic on follow-up. Despite initial approval for pancreatic pseudocyst drainage, LAMS has been used with increased frequency at various locations within gastrointestinal tract including GJ anastomotic strictures. Future randomized control trials are warranted to compare the efficacy of fcSEMS to LAMS.
