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

introductionWith the high rates of obesity worldwide, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has become a very popular procedure. Due to its simple technique, rare complications might be overseen. Gastric leaks and fistula are fairly uncommon complications. In comparison to other types of fistulas, gastrobronchial fistulas are rarer with serious complications. Definitive management is yet to be determined. We intend to explore the literature on the management approach of such patients. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 46-year-old male, presented with on/off abdominal pain, productive cough, and vomiting. The patient had left sided rhonchi on examination. In addition to a history of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) 4 years ago. Imaging confirmed the presence of a gastrobronchial fistula. Conservative and endoscopic treatment failed. Consecutively, surgery was indicated. A laparoscopic mini gastric bypass with refashioning of gastric fistula edges and closure with graham patch was done.

conclusionGiven the increasing number of such surgeries performed the recognition of acute and chronic complications, and their optimal management is of great importance. Although performing a Roux-en-Y fistulojejunostomy was recommended in the literature, conservative and endoscopic treatment should be considered before.
