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

Purpose: This study aimed to compare postoperative gastrointestinal symptoms between patients who underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y (R-Y) and Billroth-II with Braun (B-II B) reconstruction. Methods: This observational study retrospectively analyzed 151 patients (110 in R-Y group and 41 in B-II B group) who underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy from January 2020 to December 2021. A comparison was made regarding surgical outcomes, perioperative nutritional and inflammatory markers, postoperative dietary patterns, and gastrointestinal symptoms between the two groups. Results: The operation time was longer in the R-Y group than the B-II B group (261.00 ± 56.17 min versus 239.88 ± 57.78 min, Conclusions: Abdominal distention emerged as the main gastrointestinal symptom burden in patients with gastric cancer undergoing laparoscopic distal gastrectomy. Both Billroth-II with Braun and R-Y reconstructions exhibited a high and similar incidence of gastrointestinal symptoms in the short term. Therefore, medical staff should pay attention to the management of gastrointestinal symptoms in these patients postoperatively.
