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

introductionAchalasia is a primary esophageal motility disorder of unknown origin. The clinical manifestations are caused by the loss of peristalsis of the esophagus and functional obstruction at the esophagogastric junction. There are several treatment strategies for esophageal achalasia, such as medications, endoscopic treatment, and surgery. The successful treatment of a case of jejunal interposition surgery with overlap esophago-jejunal anastomosis for an esophageal stricture due to repeated endoscopic dilation for esophageal achalasia is reported. CASE PRESENTATION: The patient was a 67-year-old man who was diagnosed with esophageal achalasia 13 years earlier. Partial esophagectomy of the portion with the stricture and esophago-jejunal anastomosis using the overlap method were performed for the esophageal stricture due to rupture during endoscopic balloon dilatation. The patient's postoperative recovery was unremarkable, and the dysphagia due to esophageal stricture disappeared.

conclusionsThe overlap technique in esophago-jejunal anastomosis after partial esophagectomy was very effective for an esophageal stricture in a patient with achalasia because it made possible the additional resection of endoluminal muscle.
