Endoscopic management of edematous gastro-jejunal anastomotic stenosis.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Edematous anastomotic stenosis is a rare complication following gastrectomy. Surgical reintervention is the traditional treatment of choice; however, no standardized alternative exists. Recent reports have proposed systemic steroid therapy as a promising option. Fully covered self-expanding metal stents have also been evaluated in the management of gastrointestinal strictures and gastric outlet obstructions. We present the case of a 40-year-old male who developed edematous anastomotic stenosis following laparoscopic gastrectomy. The patient was successfully treated with a combination of systemic steroid therapy and fully covered self-expanding metal stent placement. This approach enabled early resumption of oral intake and earlier discontinuation of steroids compared to previous reports, while achieving complete resolution of the stenosis. Further studies are needed to establish the optimal steroid regimen and clarify the role of stenting in this context.
