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

backgroundIn case of insufficient weight loss or weight regain or relapse of weight-related comorbidities after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), other procedures such as reduction of a large gastric pouch and stoma, lengthening of the Roux limb, conversion to sleeve gastrectomy and/or bilio-pancreatic diversion with duodenal switch have been advocated. Single anastomosis jejuno-ileal (SAJI) is a new revisional simple operation performed after RYGB failure which adds malabsorption to the previous gastric bypass.

methodsSAJI includes a single jejuno-ileal anastomosis specifically joining the ileum 250-300 cm proximal to the ileo-caecal valve and the jejunum 30 cm below the gastro-jejunal anastomosis on the Roux limb of the previous RYGB. Thirty-one patients underwent SAJI for insufficient weight loss and/or weight regain after RYGB. The percent total weight loss (%TWL) after RYGB and before SAJI was 21.8 ± 7.8. All SAJI operations were performed laparoscopically. The SAJI mean operating time was 145 min.

resultsRegarding weight loss after SAJI, %TWL is 27.2 ± 7.4, 31.2 ± 6.4, 33.7 ± 5.9 and 32.9 ± 5.2 at 12, 24, 36 and 48 months, respectively. Our series recorded a low rate of peri-operative and medium-term complications with a low grade of severity (Clavien-Dindo classification grade). One patient required reoperation 36 days after SAJI for epigastrium incarcerated incisional hernia at the previous RYGB laparotomy site. Mortality was 0. Comorbidity reduction/resolution after SAJI is 83.2% for type 2 diabetes mellitus, 42.8% for arterial hypertension, 72.8% for dyslipidemia and 45.3% for OSA.

conclusionsTreatment of failed RYGB is challenging. SAJI is a less complicated, purely low invasive malabsorptive operation that should reach satisfactory %TWL and comorbidity reduction/resolution.
