The clinical outcomes of laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with double-tract reconstruction versus tube-like stomach reconstruction in patients with adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction based on propensity score-matching: a multicenter cohort study.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Purpose: Laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with double-tract reconstruction (LPG-DTR) and laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with tube-like stomach reconstruction (LPG-TLR) are both function-preserving procedures performed for treating AEG. However, there is no clinical consensus on the selection of digestive tract reconstruction after proximal gastrectomy, and the best way to reconstruct the digestive tract remains controversial. This study aimed at comparing the clinical outcomes of LPG-DTR and LPG-TLR to provide some reference to the choice of AEG surgical modalities. Methods: This was a multicenter, retrospective cohort study. we collected clinicopathological and follow-up data of patients with consecutive cases diagnosed with AEG from January 2016 to June 2021 in five medical centers. According to the way of digestive tract reconstruction after tumor resection, patients who underwent LPG-DTR or LPG-TLR were included in the present study. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to balance baseline variables that might affect the study outcomes. The QOL of the patients was evaluated using the Visick grade. Results: A total of 124 eligible consecutive cases were finally included. Patients in both groups were matched using the PSM method, and 55 patients from each group were included in the analysis after PSM. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of the operation time, amount of intraoperative blood loss, days of postoperative abdominal drainage tube placement, postoperative hospitalization days, total hospitalization cost, the total number of lymph nodes cleared, and the number of positive lymph nodes ( Conclusion: The anti-reflux effect and quality of life of LPG-DTR for AEG were comparable to those of LPG-TLR. Compared with LPG-TLR, LPG-DTR provide better nutrition status for patients with AEG. LPG-DTR is a superior reconstruction method after proximal gastrectomy.
