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

objectivesGastrojejunostomy is a critical procedure for managing gastric outlet obstruction. While surgical gastrojejunostomy has traditionally been the standard approach, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided gastroenterostomy has emerged as a promising endoscopic alternative. This comprehensive review aims to explore the development, techniques, outcomes, and comparative effectiveness of EUS-guided gastroenterostomy in comparison to duodenal stenting and surgical gastrojejunostomy.

methodsA comprehensive literature search was conducted using electronic databases to identify relevant studies published up to April 2024. The search included keywords related to EUS-guided gastrojejunostomy, surgical gastrojejunostomy, and duodenal stenting. Studies reporting on technical success, clinical success, complications, recurrence rates, quality of life, and long-term outcomes were included for analysis.

resultsThe development of EUS-guided gastroenterostomy has evolved significantly over the years, driven by device advancements and improved endoscopic techniques. Comparative studies have shown that the technique offers several advantages, including the ability to create an anastomosis without the need for surgery, reduced invasiveness, shorter hospital stays, and potentially improved patient outcomes as compared to duodenal stenting and surgical gastrojejunostomy.

conclusionEndoscopic ultrasound-guided gastroenterostomy represents a promising alternative to surgical gastrojejunostomy and duodenal stenting for the management of gastric outlet obstruction. The technique has evolved significantly, offering a less invasive and more effective treatment option.
