1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Conventional jejunal reconstruction procedures for large duodenal defects include jejunal serosal patch repair and duodenojejunostomy and have some risks of postoperative complications. The pedicled jejunal flap is used for reconstruction following laryngopharyngectomy, esophagectomy and other gastrointestinal surgeries. We report two cases of successful closure of duodenal defects after partial duodenectomies by pedicled jejunal flap reconstruction. Case 1: A 72-year-old man was diagnosed with gastrointestinal stromal tumor by esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy and computed tomography (CT). Case 2: A 63-year-old woman was diagnosed with early duodenal cancer using EGD and CT. Partial duodenectomy and pedicled jejunal flap reconstruction were performed in both patients. A part of the jejunum was formed into a pedicled flap to fit the duodenal defect and duodenojejunal anastomosis was performed. The patients did not report any postoperative gastrointestinal symptoms or abnormal findings during follow-up EGD or upper gastrointestinal radiography.
