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

BACKGROUND/

aimThis study examined whether functional outcomes of linear-stapled Billroth I (LS-BI) in totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG) are comparable to those of circular-stapled Billroth I (CS-BI) in laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG). PATIENTS AND

methodsThis was a retrospective study of patients with gastric cancer undergoing TLDG with LS-BI (n=50) or LADG with CS-BI (n=50). Postoperative endoscopic findings of the remnant stomach and nutritional status were evaluated.

resultsThe occurrence of grade 2 or more severe remnant gastritis in the LS-BI group (46.0%) was significantly higher than that in the CS-BI group (18.0%) (p=0.005), whereas there was no significant difference in the incidence of residual food and bile reflux between the two groups. Postoperative changes in body weight, and serum albumin and total protein levels were similar between the two groups.

conclusionTLDG with LS-BI may be a good alternative to LADG with CS-BI because of its comparable nutritional outcomes, but with a higher occurrence of remnant gastritis.
