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

backgroundSerious complications due to perforation restrict the development of duodenal endoscopic treatment. The key stage for remediation is the successful endoscopic closure to prevent peritonitis and the need for surgical intervention. This report aimed to present a new simple method for the closure of large iatrogenic duodenal perforations with purse-string sutures using the novel endoloops and repositionable clips through a single-channel endoscope.

methodsA total of 23 patients with iatrogenic duodenal perforations ≥ 1 cm were retrospectively studied who were presently treated by purse-string sutures using the novel endoloops and the repositionable hemostasis clips with the single-channel endoscope at four institutes. During and after the procedure, a 20-gauge needle was used to relieve the pneumoperitoneum or subcutaneous emphysema. Finally, a gastroduodenal decompression tube was placed.

resultsThe median maximum diameter of iatrogenic duodenal perforations was 1.65 cm (range 1.0-3.0 cm). Complete endoscopic closure of all 23 perforations was achieved. No patient had severe complications such as peritonitis. The wounds were healed and no obvious duodenal stricture was observed in all cases after 3 months.

conclusionPurse-string sutures using the novel endoloops and repositionable endoclips through single-channel endoscope were feasible, effective and easy methods for the closure of large duodenal iatrogenic perforations.
