The Effect of Different Staple Sizes on Leak Pressure Among Patients Undergoing Sleeve Gastrectomy: a Pilot Study.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Gastric leak after LSG is a devastating complication, reported in less than 1% of cases. Consensus is lacking regarding the best approach to construct the sleeve, staple sizes, and reinforcement methods on potential leak development. In this study, we have compared the leak pressure of two different staple sizes in the resected portion of the stomach, immediately after its removal. Fifteen patients were enrolled. Leak pressure of a vascular, small-size stapler was significantly higher than that of a medium-size one. All leaks appeared in the proximal third of the resected stomach. These results may have clinical implication. Since other factors may play a role in the risk for leaks following sleeve gastrectomy, a large, prospective clinical trial should be performed comparing the two staple sizes in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.
