Short-term outcomes of laparoscopic versus open proximal gastrectomy with double-tract reconstruction for Siewert type II and III adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction: a retrospective observational study of consecutive patients.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundTo investigate the safety and merits of laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with double-tract reconstruction (LPG-DT) for Siewert type II and III adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG).
methodsRetrospective analysis of the clinical data of 100 consecutive patients with Siewert II and III AEG treated at the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University from October 2010 to October 2019 was performed. Out of these patients, 69 underwent open proximal gastrectomy with double-tract reconstruction (OPG-DT), while 31 underwent LPG-DT. The clinicopathological characteristics, perioperative data, and short-term outcomes of the two groups were compared. A P value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.
resultsMales accounted for 87% of all patients. Lymph nodes (LNs) count, time to first meal, postoperative length of stay, and postoperative complications were similar between the OPG-DT and LPG-DT group. flatus time was significantly shorter in the LPG-DT group (P<0.05), while the duration of operation was significantly shorter in the the OPG-DT group (P<0.001). Furthermore, the LPG-DT group has less blood loss, shorter flatus time, and lower postoperative-day-5 white blood cell (WBC) count and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels (P<0.05).
conclusionsAlthough LPG-DT took longer to perform, its advantages of reduced blood loss and less surgical stress reflected on inflammatory markers supports an acceptable surgical option for Siewert II and III AEG.
