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

backgroundPost-surgical gastroparesis (psGP) is putatively related to vagal denervation from either therapeutic transection or inadvertent injury. Here, we present a series of patients undergoing endoscopic per-oral pyloromyotomy (POP) as a treatment for medically refractory psGP.

methodsPatients identified from a prospectively maintained database of patients undergoing POP procedures at our institution from January 2016 to January 2018 were included. Surgical history, symptom scores, and gastric emptying studies before and 3 months after POP were additionally recorded.

resultsDuring the study period, 177 POP procedures were performed, of which 38 (21.5%) were for psGP. The study cohort was 84.2% female with a mean body mass index of 27.6 kg/m

conclusionPOP is a safe and effective endoscopic therapy for patients with psGP. POP should be considered a reasonable first-line option for patients with medically refractory psGP and may allow stomach preservation.
