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

Gastrointestinal endoscopy has seen great changes over recent years, and the future seems bright. Looking forward, some advances in technology can be predicted, but the current financial climate may limit their widespread adoption. Increasing subspecialisation with continuing service development and quality assurance are likely to form the basis of the major changes over the next 5 years. Increasing juxtaposition between laparoscopic and endoscopic procedures presents the most exciting opportunities over the 10-year timeframe. This article extrapolates current trends to try to predict the different possibilities for endoscopy over the next decade.
