Esophageal stricture as a complication of stent placement for leak after sleeve gastrectomy.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Obesity is defined as body mass index (BMI) greater than 30. Weight loss improves the quality of life and alleviates or even treats some obesity-related comorbidities with general improvement in the quality of life. Sleeve gastrectomy results in major reduction of the size of the stomach and decreases the sense of hunger due to various hormonal and neuronal pathways. A 31-year-old lady had BMI of 49 underwent sleeve gastrectomy. Three weeks after surgery, she presented with epigastric pain and vomiting with radiological signs of leak. Endoscopic esophageal stent placed with resultant improvement of the condition; after stent removal, she developed esophageal stricture diagnosed with barium study. The patient underwent repeated successful endoscopic dilatation. Leak and bleeding are the most serious complications after sleeve gastrectomy. Subclinical leak is treated with antibiotics, drainage of the collection and stent, critical patients need stenting with operative repair of the site of leak.
