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 analyze the impact of the reversal penetrating technique (RPT) for intrathoracic gastroesophageal mechanical anastomosis on the development of anastomotic complications in Ivor Lewis minimally invasive esophagectomy (ILMIE), and to further identify the risk factors for the development of anastomotic leakage and stricture.
methodsA retrospective observational study was conducted using the clinical data of 316 patients with esophageal carcinoma (EC) who underwent ILMIE from January 2012 to December 2019. The participants were divided into three groups, namely the RPT group, the transoral Orvil technique (TOT) group, and the purse-string technique (PST) group, according to the different stapler placement methods for intrathoracic mechanistic circular stapling. Multivariate analysis was performed to investigate the association of risk factors with anastomotic leakage and stricture.
resultsThere were 154 patients in the RPT group, 78 in the TOT group, and 84 in the PST group for intrathoracic gastroesophageal circular stapling in ILMIE. There were no differences in intraoperative anastomosis-related conditions including conversion of open operations, and lymph nodes harvested between the three groups. However, the mean total operative time and gastroesophageal anastomosis time in the RPT group were significantly shorter than those in the other groups (both P<0.05). The rates of anastomotic leakage and stricture showed no statistical differences between the three groups (leakage: P=0.875; stricture: P=0.942). Multivariate analysis revealed that the RPT method of anvil placement did not increase the probability of anastomotic leakage [RPT: reference; TOT: odds ratio (OR) 0.422, P=0.341; PST: OR 1.436, P=0.645] and stricture (RPT: reference; TOT: OR 0.579, P=0.376; PST: OR 1.195, P=0.755).
conclusionsThe RPT method of anvil placement for intrathoracic gastroesophageal circular stapling does not increase the risk of anastomotic complications in ILMIE, but had significantly shorter surgical time and anastomosis time.
