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

backgroundCollis gastroplasty for esophageal lengthening is a complex adjunct to hiatal hernia repair in patients with esophageal foreshortening.

aimsTo study the final morphology of the repair using state-of-the-art imaging: computed tomography with three-dimensional reconstruction.

methodsNine patients with prior Collis gastroplasty and hiatal hernia repair were studied with three-dimensional computed tomography reconstruction to evaluate the anatomy of the repair and screen for hiatal hernia recurrence. Secondary outcomes were quality of life and surgical morbidity.

resultsAfter a medium follow-up of 34 months, objective recurrence of the hiatal hernia was observed in three patients (1.5, 2.2, and 3 cm), and two patients were symptomatic. The gastroesophageal junction tube (neo-esophagus) created by the gastroplasty was similar in shape and volume to the native esophagus in all patients. The fundoplication previously performed covered the neo-esophagus in only two of the nine patients. No fistulas or mortality were observed.

conclusionsThree-dimensional computed tomography reconstruction of the gastroesophageal junction following hiatal hernia repair with Collis gastroplasty and fundoplication reliably demonstrates postoperative anatomy and helps better understand hiatal hernia recurrence.
