Laparoscopic D2 plus complete mesogastrium excision using the "enjoyable space" approach versus conventional D2 total gastrectomy for local advanced gastric cancer: short-term outcomes.

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
introductionLaparoscopy-assisted radical total gastrectomy is technically demanding.
aimTo introduce the "enjoyable space" approach to achieve D2 plus complete mesogastrium excision (CME) and to investigate its safety and feasibility. MATERIAL AND
methodsBetween January 2015 and December 2017, 165 patients with primary advanced upper gastric cancer underwent laparoscopy-assisted radical total gastrectomy. Among these patients, 81 underwent conventional D2 total gastrectomy (D2 group) and 84 underwent D2 plus CME total gastrectomy (D2 + CME group). Clinicopathological characteristics, surgical outcomes and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.
resultsThere were no significant differences between the two groups (p > 0.05) in clinicopathological characteristics. However, the D2 + CME group had a longer mean operative time, lower mean blood loss and slightly higher mean number of retrieved lymph nodes (LNs) than the D2 group (p < 0.05 each). The mean time to first flatus, liquid diet, and soft diet and the duration of hospital stay were similar between the two groups (p > 0.05 each). No significant difference in postoperative complication rates was found between the groups (16.0% vs. 9.5%, p > 0.05).
conclusionsThe "enjoyable space" approach is an option to achieve D2 + CME, and its safety and feasibility over conventional method are confirmed with lower intraoperative blood loss and more harvested LNs.
