Video-Laparoscopic Treatment of Intrathoracic Gastric Volvulus.
Article in JSLS : Journal of the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundGastric volvulus is a rare condition, characterized by abnormal rotation of the stomach, causing obstruction with risk of ischemia, necrosis, and perforation. It is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates and, as it is life threatening, early diagnosis and treatment are crucial.
methodsRetrospective study of medical records of intrathoracic gastric volvulus patients treated by video-laparoscopy from January 2000 to December 2018, in a University Hospital.
resultsThirty patients (34 surgical procedures - 4 re-operations), 9 (30%) male and 21 (70%) female. The mean age was 57.65 ± 32.65 and the mean body mass index was 27.11 ± 3.5 kg/m
conclusionsSurgical treatment should be indicated to reduce morbidity and mortality, and associated with improved symptoms and patient prognosis. Video-laparoscopic surgery on intrathoracic gastric volvulus proved to be safe and effective and should be the option of choice in the management of this disease.
