Type IV Hiatal Hernia Containing the Gastric Pouch and Proximal Roux Limb: A Rare Cause of Bowel Obstruction Following Roux-en-Y Bypass Surgery.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is considered the gold standard for weight loss surgery and is an effective, safe treatment for morbid obesity and associated metabolic derangements. Complications such as small bowel obstruction are rare with a reported incidence of 5%. Obstruction caused by hiatal herniation of the gastric pouch and alimentary limb occurs even less frequently. Prompt recognition and treatment are imperative as delayed intervention may result in significant morbidity. At the time of this manuscript there have only been four reported cases in the literature highlighting a paucity of clinical guidance for the recognition and management of this complication. Here we present a case of acute small bowel obstruction secondary to hiatal herniation of the gastric pouch and proximal Roux limb. Furthermore, we review the literature and discuss the key aspects for the management of this complication.
