A modified method for Billroth-II gastrojejunostomy after laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy.

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
Background: There are many types of gastrojejunostomy reconstruction after laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG) for gastric cancer, each of which has merits and demerits. This study introduced a novel method (called pant-shaped anastomosis) involving the construction of a side-to-side anastomosis between the afferent loop and efferent loop at the site of gastrojejunal anastomosis using a linear stapler. The results of applying pant-shaped anastomosis to LADG were also analyzed. Methods: The clinical data of 96 patients who underwent LADG with pant-shaped anastomosis between June 2018 and June 2020 at The First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College (Wuhu City, China) were analyzed retrospectively. Results: All procedures were successfully completed without conversion to open laparotomy. An average pant-shaped anastomosis took 22 min to construct and had a mean incision length of 5.3 cm. The mean time to postoperative first flatus was 3.5 days. The mean time to intake of an oral semiliquid diet was 5.5 days. The average postoperative hospital stay was 8.2 days. No patient developed extraluminal bleeding, intraluminal bleeding, anastomosis leakage, afferent obstruction, internal herniation or pancreatitis. The proportion of patients who experienced significant reflux was 10.1% (Visick III-IV). In total, 62.6% of patients exhibited endoscopic reflux gastritis of grade 1 or less. Conclusions: Pant-shaped anastomosis is a safe and simple procedure. It is a feasible option to reduce afferent obstruction after LADG in patients with distal gastric cancer.
