Reconstruction using the colon or jejunum in patients with synchronous advanced esophageal and gastric cancers: a retrospective study from a single institutional database.
Article in BMC surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
purposeThe aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of simultaneous resection of synchronous advanced esophageal and gastric cancers.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 16 patients who underwent resection of synchronous advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and gastric adenocarcinoma from January 2009 to Dec 2021. Subtotal esophagectomy and total gastrectomy were performed using the Ivor-Lewis or McKeown approach. Reconstruction was performed using a pedicled jejunal graft or colon interposition. Perioperative and postoperative data of all patients were analyzed.
resultsThere were no in-hospital mortalities following surgery, but 9 patients (56.3%) suffered major perioperative complications. Comparison of the groups that received reconstruction using the jejunum and the colon indicated similar incidences of perioperative complications, overall survival, and disease-free survival. Cox regression analysis indicated that lymph node metastasis of both cancers was independent risk factor for overall survival.
conclusionThe existence of synchronous tumors of the esophagus and stomach is not unusual, the radical surgical treatment could be carried out whenever possible.
