Laparoscopic Proximal Gastrectomy with Jejunal Interposition for Early Proximal Gastric Cancer.
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal cancer, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeProximal gastrectomy has been more advantageous than total gastrectomy in early cancer in the upper third of the stomach. Jejunal interposition is a novel reconstruction technique to prevent reflux esophagitis and anastomotic stricture in proximal gastrectomy. The combination of these two procedures via laparoscopic approach is not yet widespread. Therefore, this study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of this surgery.
methodsThis is a retrospective study on eight patients with laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy and jejunal interposition for early proximal gastric cancer. Patients were followed up at 1, 3, and 6 months and then at 6-month intervals to investigate complications, recurrence, metastasis, and survival.
resultsAll cases were adenocarcinoma in the early stage (cT1N0M0). The median (range) operating time and postoperative hospital stay were 145 min (120-210) and 7 days (6-9), respectively. No complication (including reflux esophagitis and anastomotic stricture) occurred. All patients were alive without any recurrence or metastasis during the median follow-up of 28 months (ranged 6-40 months).
conclusionLaparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with jejunal interposition for early gastric cancer is safe and feasible with good long-term outcomes. Further large studies are required to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this procedure.
