Clinical outcomes of proximal gastrectomy with gastric tubular reconstruction and total gastrectomy for proximal gastric cancer: A matched cohort study.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Background: Proximal gastrectomy with gastric tubular reconstruction is a surgical procedure that can preserve function in patients with proximal gastric cancer. However, whether gastric tubular reconstruction with proximal gastrectomy has certain advantage in some aspects over total gastrectomy is controversial. To evaluate the benefit of gastric tubular reconstruction after proximal gastrectomy, we compared gastric tubular reconstruction with total gastrectomy for proximal gastric cancer. Method: A total of 351 patients were enrolled. Concurrent total gastrectomy patients matched with the Proximal gastrectomy group in age, sex, body mass index, clinical stage, and ASA score were selected by propensity score matching. Preoperative basic information, perioperative indicators, histopathological features, postoperative complications and nutritional status, reflux were compared between the two groups. Results: There was no significant difference in the incidence of reflux between two groups (14.8% and 6.5% respectively, Conclusion: The Proximal gastrectomy group has better clinical outcome and gastric tubular reconstruction is simple, similar complications and reflux rates, gastric tubular reconstruction may be more suitable for proximal gastric cancer.
