Diagnosis and treatment of ECL cell tumors.
Review in The Yale journal of biology and medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The diagnosis of ECL-omas is easy to perform. In patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (ZES), ECL-omas are almost always observed in the setting of multiple endocrine neoplasia type I. In patients without ZES, the first step is to discard non-gastrin-related sporadic ECL-omas whose prognosis is poor. By contrast, prognosis of ECL-omas in patients with ZES or chronic atrophic gastritis is good. Metastases are rare, and tumor-related deaths are exceptional. In both conditions, ECL-omas measuring less than 1 cm should be treated by endoscopic polypectomy and survey. Treatment modalities (surgery, endoscopic polypectomy) for larger tumors are still discussed. The impact of endoscopic ultrasonography on the therapeutic decision has not yet been evaluated. Considering the good prognosis of these tumors, aggressive surgery could be limited to selected patients. Multicentric studies should be undertaken to determine the best treatment modalities.
