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

backgroundDespite the high success rate associated with Heller myotomy in the treatment of primary achalasia, symptom persistence or relapse occurs in approximately 10-20% of patients. Unfortunately, the ideal treatment after failed myotomy is not well established yet. We present a didactical video with a stepwise technique to perform a robotic revisional procedure after failed Heller myotomy.

methodsIn this report, each surgical step is thoroughly described and visually represented with useful technical tips that might help in improving surgical results of revisional Heller myotomy.

resultsIn patients with previous surgical myotomy, the robotic platform with its high-definition magnified view and EndoWrist instruments allow for a safe and precise redo surgical myotomy.

conclusionsDespite its improved surgical capabilities, the role of robotic redo Heller myotomy in the treatment algorithm of patients with recurrent symptoms after failed surgical myotomy should be further explored.
