Radiofrequency ablation for Barrett's dysplasia: past, present and the future?
Review in Current gastroenterology reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Barrett's oesophagus is the only know pre-cursor to oesophageal adenocarcinoma. The incidence of OAC is growing rapidly in the western world with a poor prognosis for most with a 5-year survival of only 15%. The approach to treating patients with neoplasia arising within BE has dramatically changed in the past 5 years. Resection of visible lesions with endoscopic mucosal resection followed by field ablation with radio-frequency ablation is now the accepted standard of care in these patients worldwide. This combined approach has shown high rates of disease reversal in several high quality clinical trials but also large volume registry studies. As well as being a minimally invasive and oesophageal sparing interventions compared to surgery with oesophagectomy, endoscopic therapy has proved to be safe and emerging long-term data show sustained benefit in the majority of patients and low rates of cancer progression. However, in a sub-group of patients, recurrences have been reported after successful endoscopic therapy making it mandatory to follow these patients post therapy. Improvements in endoscopic imaging continue to aid early diagnosis, and in turn, this will allow clinicians the ability to offer patient's treatment at an early stage.
