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

Gastric leak following sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is a rare but significant cause of morbidity and mortality. A high clinical index of suspicion is the most sensitive approach to detect gastric leaks. Computed tomography (CT) is the gold standard diagnostic technique, although it might not be performed due to unavailability, and the inability to image superobese patients due to limited CT gantry space. Early detection and management are critical for attaining a better prognosis. The following pictorial review discusses the various plain X-ray radiographic findings that indicate a gastric leak. These findings may be overlooked, however, they remain valuable in patients with clinically suspected gastric leaks. This pictorial review illustrates the spectrum of findings related to post-SG gastric leak encountered in plain X-ray radiography.
