Preservation of physiological passage through the remnant stomach prevents postoperative malnutrition after proximal gastrectomy with double tract reconstruction.
Article in Surgery today, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeDouble tract reconstruction (DT) after proximal gastrectomy (PG) is considered beneficial for postoperative nutrition status by preserving the physiological passage of food. We conducted this study to assess postoperative nutrition status based on food passage after this operation.
methodsThe subjects of this retrospective study were 63 patients who underwent PG with DT. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether they had postoperative malnutrition (PM) 1 year postoperatively (PM group) or not (non-PM group). PM was defined by both weight loss > 10% and a low body mass index of < 20 or < 22 kg/m
resultsThere were 33 patients in the PM group. These patients were predominantly female (p < 0.01) and lacked physiological passage through the remnant stomach (PRS) on postoperative fluoroscopy (defined as non-PRS, p = 0.03). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that female gender and non-PRS status were independent predictors of PM (odds ratio [95% CI]; 7.42 [1.33-41.4]; p = 0.02, 6.77 [1.01-45.4]; p = 0.04, respectively).
conclusionPreservation of the physiological passage of food through the remnant stomach prevents PM after PG with DT.
