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

introductionIschemic stomach perforation and bleeding are major complications after distal pancreatectomy with en bloc celiac axis resection (DP-CAR) for locally advanced pancreatic cancer. Although there are some treatment options for ischemic gastric events, we need to discuss the optimal treatment based on the patient's general condition and history. CASE PRESENTATION: A 76-year-old woman with advanced pancreatic cancer underwent DP-CAR with the reconstruction of the common hepatic artery-celiac artery. She presented with a high fever and melena at 13 days and twenty-nine days after the operation, respectively. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) demonstrated ischemic stomach perforation, which was localized. Although nonsurgical treatments, including endoscopic clipping and proton-pump inhibitor administration, were attempted, her symptoms were not relieved. Therefore, we performed intragastric suture repair using oral endoscopy (ISE) for gastric perforation. Although she presented with surgical site infection and a catheter-related blood stream infection after ISE, she was discharged 140 days after the first operation. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Ischemic gastric events following DP-CAR can be treated with non-surgical and surgical approaches. In this case, non-surgical management could not improve the patient's gastric complications, and she had to undergo surgery. Given the patient's condition, ISE was an indication for this complication and was, thus, performed among surgical procedures, resulting in the alleviation of the complication. Using ISE may provide safe and less invasive surgery.

conclusionThis is the first case of ISE for use in refractory ischemic stomach perforation following DP-CAR. ISE can be a useful and minimally invasive surgical procedure.
