Closed-Loop Gangrene Post Banded Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (B-RYGB).
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Although laparoscopic banded Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (B-RYGB) has been adopted in bariatric surgery to enhance long-term weight loss outcomes and reduce pouch dilation, cranial slippage (herniation) of the alimentary limb through a non-slipped MiniMizer gastric ring (Bariatric Solutions International GmbH, Stein am Rhein, Switzerland) following B-RYGB, leading to small bowel ischemia, represents a rare but serious complication. We present a case of a 35-year-old male who had undergone multiple bariatric procedures to manage obesity due to failure to lose weight. The patient presented to our emergency department in December 2024 with features of an acute surgical abdomen, eight months after undergoing laparoscopic B-RYGB using a MiniMizer gastric ring. This case report contributes to the growing body of literature on complications associated with B-RYGB, particularly those related to the MiniMizer gastric ring.
