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

backgroundRoux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is one of the most frequently performed bariatric procedures worldwide. Remnant gastric cancer after RYGB is a rare complication. There were about seventeen cases reported in the world. The location of the tumor in these cases occurs mainly in the gastric antrum, followed by the body, then the pylorus and linitis plastica, and the last was fundus of the stomach. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case that gastric cancer located in the cardia of stomach after RYGB. CASE REPORT: A 68-year-old male patient had chronic esophagitis, bile reflux gastritis, and erosive antral gastritis 5 years after RYGB and now developed to aggressive carcinoma in the gastric pouch. In spite of having chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine therapy, the patient died of multiple organ failure after 15 months.

conclusionsThis case report highlights the importance to have gastroscopy to observe the proximal small remnant stomach after RYGB in long-term follow-up. Attention must be paid when patients develop symptoms like abdominal pain or excessive weight loss after RYGB. For patients at high risk such as those who have a family history of gastric cancer or presenting abnormal levels of tumor markers should rather undergo Sleeve Gastrectomy plus Jejunojejunal Bypass (SGJB) instead of RYGB.
