1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

In the last decades, bariatric surgery has been widely performed to treat obesity and its co-morbidities, with the laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) being the second most commonly performed procedure. Abdominal pain after LRYGB is a common symptom. This report concerns a case of a rare cause of chronic abdominal pain after LRYGB and cholecystectomy in a 48-year-old woman due to a cholesterol stone within the gastric remnant that was removed via open gastrectomy. This is the first documented case of cholesterol stone formation in the gastric remnant and underscores the importance of vigilance for atypical complications in patients undergoing bariatric procedures.
