Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS)-Guided Drainage of a Postsleeve Gastrectomy Subphrenic Collection Using a Lumen Apposition Stent.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Sleeve gastrectomy is currently the most frequently performed bariatric surgery. Postoperative leaks represent the main cause of morbidity in up to 8% of patients with a mortality rate ranging between 0.1 and 5%. However, management of these leaks remains controversial. We report the case of a patient presenting with sepsis 2 weeks after surgery. A subphrenic collection and a leak were found on CT. Despite medical treatment, the patient did not show clinical improvement. Hence, we considered a transgastric endosonographic-guided drainage of the collection using an electrocautery-enhanced lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS). The procedure underwent uneventfully, and the patient status improved rapidly. Two weeks later, the stent was withdrawn. A follow-up endoscopy 6 weeks later showed closure of the gastric wall defect.
