Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in a patient with situs inversus totalis: case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The purpose of this report is to present the case of a patient with situs inversus totalis (SIT) who underwent laparoscopic gastric bypass and review of the literature. Situs inversus is a rare congenital abnormality that occurs in ~0.01% of the population and is characterized by transposition of the abdominal viscera1. When associated with dextrocardia, it is known as SIT. Electrocardiography reveals a reversal of the electrical waves of the heart and is the diagnostic measure of choice. Roux-en-Y laparoscopic gastric bypass for morbid obesity is one of the most effective bariatric procedures currently considered as the gold standard in bariatric surgery. We present the case of a 19-year-old male with morbid obesity and diagnosis of SIT, who underwent a laparoscopic gastric bypass adjusting the technique to the anatomical changes typical of this variant. It can be concluded, based on the previously compared cases and what was reported in ours, that in patients who have an indication to perform bariatric surgery and present SIT, surgery is not contraindicated, obtaining favorable results.
