Comparison of short- and long-term outcomes following laparoscopy and open total gastrectomy for gastric cancer: a propensity score-matched analysis.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to compare the short- and long-term outcomes of laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) with those of open total gastrectomy (OTG) for the upper part of clinical Stage I gastric cancer.
methodsBetween 2000 and 2015, 122 and 96 consecutive gastric cancer patients who had undergone curative LTG and OTG with lymphadenectomy were enrolled in the study. We performed the simple intracorporeal techniqueof esophagojejunostomy using a circular stapler in LTG. This technique comprised of laparoscopic trans-abdominal anvil insertion into the esophagus, which was assisted by lifting up the nasogastric tube connected to the anvil head.
resultsBy the Clavien-Dindo classification defined as grade II or high, the rate of postoperative complications was 14.8% (14/112: Grade II (7), IIIa (4), and IIIb (3)) in LTG and 15.6% (15/96) in OTG. There was no anastomotic leakage (0% (0/122)) and only 3.3% (4/122) of anastomotic stenosis in LTG. There was no significant difference in the short-term outcomes between both groups in all enrolled and propensity score-matched patients (LTG vs. OTG: 15.4% (10/65) vs. 16.9% (11/65)). Regarding the long-term outcomes, there was no significant difference in overall survival between both groups in all enrolled (
conclusionsLTG for the upper part of clinical Stage I gastric cancer is a safe and reliable procedure and could have similar short- and long-term outcomes as OTG.
