Therapeutic application of purse-string sutures with nylon loops and metal clips under single-channel endoscopy for repair of gastrointestinal wall defects.

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 present study was performed to evaluate the therapeutic safety and feasibility of purse-string sutures with nylon loops and metal clips under single-channel endoscopy to repair gastrointestinal wall defects that had previously developed during endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFR). A multicenter prospective cohort study of 42 patients who had developed defects of the gastrointestinal wall during EFR was conducted from April 2012 to October 2016. All lesions were endoscopically repaired with either a single-channel gastroscope (research group, n=18) or double-channel gastroscope (control group, n=24). The patients' clinical features, purse-string suturing times and complication rates were analyzed. There was no significant difference in the perforation rate between the research and control groups. There were also no significant differences in the purse-string suturing time (research vs. control group, 10.5 vs. 14.6 min, respectively; P=0.214), specimen size or complication rate (subcutaneous emphysema) between the two groups. No recurrences were observed during the follow-up period. The current data suggest that application of purse-string sutures with nylon loops and metal clips for repair of EFR-induced gastrointestinal wall defects may be safely and feasibly applied under single-channel gastroscopy as well as under double-channel gastroscopy.
