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

aimThis study aims to explore the rationality, feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of single-incision laparoscopic gastric pull-up (SILS-GPU) and robot-assisted gastric pull-up (R-GPU) methods.

methodsHospital records of patients who underwent gastric pull-up with either SILS-GPU or R-GPU between May2016 and January 2024 were reviewed. Demographics, diagnosis, surgical techniques, and postoperative outcomes were evaluated.

resultsOut of the total 12 patients (eight persistent corrosive esophageal stricture-PCES, four long gap esophageal atresia-LGEA), seven underwent SILS-GPU, while the remaining five underwent R-GPU. The choice of conduit route was based on the primary pathology (PCES/EA) and the presence of posterior mediastinal fibrosis and/or tracheomalacia. The posterior mediastinum was preferred in seven, intrathoracic in three, and retrosternal in two patients. Transhiatal esophagectomy was performed in seven patients, while transthoracic esophagectomy was performed in three. There were no instances of mortality or intraoperative complications related to the preferred technique. All patients except one with Down syndrome were able to feed orally.

conclusionSILS-GPU and R-GPU are demonstrated to be safe and effective in the pediatric population, with relatively lower complication rates in children.
