A Case Report and Literature Review of Gastric Stump Carcinoma: An Uncommon Entity Following the Billroth II Procedure.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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 stump carcinoma is a rare phenomenon and could occur in individuals after a distal gastric resection. Regardless of the surgical approach, it can lead to certain complications. However, the Billroth II gastrojejunostomy procedure has been noted to have some specifically interesting complications due to the anatomical changes it triggers. These changes, such as bacterial overgrowth and enterogastric reflux, can cause metaplasia. We discuss a case of an 81-year-old male with a history of peptic ulcer disease (PUD) status post-Billroth II gastrojejunostomy 30 years prior who presented with a four-day history of bright red blood per rectum. On esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), he was found to have friable, ulcerated mucosa at the anastomosis site. Biopsy results revealed CDX2-positive cells, indicating gastric adenocarcinoma. Although it is well-known that the anatomical changes of gastrojejunostomy will undoubtedly change the microbiome of the stomach, physicians should also be mindful of the more feared complications such as gastric stump carcinoma.
