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

Duodenogastroesophageal reflux (DGER) following esophagectomy or gastrectomy can cause severe esophagitis, which impairs patients' quality of life and increases the risk of esophageal carcinogenesis. It is sometimes resistant to medical treatment, and surgical treatment is considered effective in such cases. However, an optimal operative procedure for medical treatment-resistant reflux esophagitis (RE) after proximal gastrectomy (PG) with esophagogastrostomy (EG) has not yet been established. We performed the right gastroepiploic vessels-preserving antrectomy and Roux-en-Y biliary diversion in a 70-year-old man with medical treatment-resistant severe esophagitis caused by DGER following PG with EG for esophagogastric junction cancer. The postoperative course was uneventful, and esophagogastroduodenoscopy performed on the 19th postoperative day showed marked improvement in the esophageal erosions. The patient reported symptomatic relief. The right gastroepiploic vessels-preserving antrectomy and Roux-en-Y biliary diversion were considered safe and feasible for medical treatment-resistant RE following PG with EG.
