Redo fundoplication and early Roux-en-Y diversion for failed fundoplication: a 3-year single-center experience.
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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
backgroundRedo fundoplication (RF) and Roux-en-Y diversion (RNY) are both accepted surgical treatments after failed fundoplication. However, due to higher reported morbidity, RNY is more commonly performed only after several surgical failures. In our experience, RNY at an earlier point of the disease progression seems to be related with better outcomes. The aim of this study was to investigate this aspect by comparing the results between RF and RNY performed by a single surgeon over 3 years at our institution.
methodsA prospectively maintained database was reviewed to identify patients who underwent RF or RNY at our institution between 2016 and 2019 by a single surgeon (author SKM). Patients with previous bariatric surgery were excluded.
resultsOf 43 patients, 28 underwent RF and 15 underwent RNY (mean body mass index 28.6 and 32.7 kg/m
conclusionsRNY diversion, if performed by experienced hands and at an earlier point of disease progression, has comparable perioperative morbidity to RF and should be considered as a feasible and safe option for definitive treatment of failed antireflux surgery.
