Endoscopic mucosal resection of Barrett's esophagus detects high prevalence of subsquamous intestinal metaplasia.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal endoscopy, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
aimTo report the prevalence of Subsquamous intestinal metaplasia (SSIM) in patients undergoing endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) for staging of Barrett's esophagus (BE).
methodsThirty-three patients with BE associated neoplasia underwent EMR at our institution between September 2009 and September 2011; 22 of these patients met study inclusion criteria. EMR was targeted at focal abnormalities within the BE segment. EMR was performed in standardized fashion using a cap-assisted band ligation technique, and resection specimens were assessed for the presence of SSIM. Demographic and clinical data were analyzed to determine predictors of SSIM.
resultsSSIM was detected in 59% of patients. SSIM was detected in 73% of patients with short segment (< 3 cm) BE, and in 45% of patients with long-segment (≥ 3 cm) BE (P = NS). There was no association between presence/absence of SSIM and age, gender, or stage of BE-associated neoplasia.
conclusionEMR detects SSIM in a majority of patients with BE-associated neoplasia. While the long-term clinical significance of SSIM remains uncertain, these results highlight the importance of EMR as an optimal diagnostic tool for staging of BE and detection of SSIM, and should further limit concerns that SSIM is purely a post-ablation phenomenon.
