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

We report a new method of esophagogastrostomy after proximal gastrectomy, side overlap with fundoplication by Yamashita (SOFY) in 2017. Recently, even better treatment results can be obtained by modifying the SOFY method. We describe the technical details of the modified SOFY (mSOFY) after laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy. The stomach was dissected in the short axis direction and the esophagus was dissected in the left and right direction. After the proximal gastrectomy, the bilateral diaphragmatic crus were dissected to enhance gastric elevation. After confirming that the esophagus overlapped more than 5 cm at the center of the remnant stomach (we call it SOFY check), the remnant stomach was suture-fixed to the dissected diaphragmatic crus. The right wall of the esophageal stump and the remnant stomach were anastomosed using the full length of a 45 mm-linear stapler. The entry hole was closed in a direction that did not widen the anastomotic hole. Both sides of the esophagus, remnant stomach, and diaphragmatic crus were suture-fixed on the cranial side 1-2 cm away from the anastomosis. Moreover, the left wall and lower end of the esophagus was suture-fixed to the remnant stomach. The preserved dorsal esophageal wall is pressed and flattened by pressure from the pseudofornix, which is the reflux prevention mechanism. The mSOFY method had favorable treatment outcomes. In conclusion, mSOFY can be one of the safe and feasible reconstruction methods after laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy.
