Benefits of jejunostomy feeding in patients who underwent gastrectomy for cancer treatment.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundGastric cancer is associated with significant undernutrition responsible for an increase in morbidity and mortality after gastrectomy.
aimTo evaluate the impact of enteral nutrition by jejunostomy feeding in patients undergoing gastrectomy for cancer.
methodsBetween 2003 and 2017, all patients undergoing gastrectomy for cancer treatment were included retrospectively. A group with jejunostomy (J + group) and a group without jejunostomy (J - group) were compared.
resultsOf the 172 patients included, 60 received jejunostomy. Preoperatively, the two groups were comparable with respect to the nutritional parameters studied (body mass index, albumin,
conclusionJejunostomy feeding after gastrectomy improves nutritional characteristics and decreases postoperative morbidity. A prospective study could confirm our results.
