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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsEndoscopic resection techniques require use of submucosal injection. The aim of this study was to assess a new solution that combines hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate, and poloxamer 407 for submucosal injection.

methodsA total of 48 gastric submucosal cushions were created in fresh porcine stomachs using gelafundin (n = 16) or the new solution diluted at 50 % (n = 16), or 80 % (n = 16). The duration of mucosal elevation was measured. In an in vivo model, 10 gastric submucosal cushions were created by injecting 2 mL of the new solution at 80 % and the animal was euthanized 30 minutes after the last injection.

resultsSubmucosal cushions with the new solution at 80 % and 50 % concentration lasted longer than with gelafundin (23.13 ± 15.57, 13.1 ± 6.6, 3.94 ± 1.53 minutes, respectively;

conclusionThe combination of hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate, and poloxamer 407 produces a long-lasting submucosal cushion and does not seem to induce acute damage in the tissue making it suitable for submucosal injection.
