Gastric Remnant Perforation 10 Years After Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: A Report of a Rare Case.

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
Gastric remnant perforation is a rare yet potentially fatal complication following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). The exclusion of this segment from the alimentary tract creates significant diagnostic challenges, often leading to misdiagnosis. We report the case of a 42-year-old woman, 10 years status post RYGB for obesity, presenting with acute generalized abdominal pain. Initial imaging studies suggested ovarian torsion, but diagnostic laparoscopy revealed a perforation of the gastric remnant. Laparoscopic repair was successfully performed, and the patient recovered without complications. This case underscores the importance of maintaining a high index of suspicion for gastric remnant complications in post-RYGB patients, particularly when symptoms mimic alternative intra-abdominal pathologies. Early interdisciplinary collaboration and timely surgical intervention are crucial for optimal outcomes.
