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

backgroundIntractable diarrhea or excess weight loss associated with protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) can occur after Transit Bipartition (TB). This study evaluates the effect of transposing the alimentary limb to the proximal intestines.

methodsBetween 2017 and 2024, ten patients with malnutrition and diarrhea underwent Gastro-Jejunal Ileal Interposition (GJIB) surgery after TB. We prospectively monitored protein-energy malnutrition postoperatively and retrospectively analyzed demographic data, laboratory findings, and anthropometric measurements. Gastric transit scintigraphy was performed on symptomatic and asymptomatic patients to evaluate gastric evacuation diversity between the pylorus and the gastro-ileostomy.

resultsTen patients (male/female, 6/4) were operated on. The preoperative mean age was 49.4 ± 9.19 years. The mean body mass index (BMI) was 22.19 ± 1.13 kg/m

conclusionsGJIB may be a viable revision procedure for resolving PEM and related complications without compromising the metabolic benefits of the initial surgery on diabetes resolution by decreasing the Exl.B%.
