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

backgroundInternational guidelines suggest endoscopic resection for all patients with low-risk mucosal cancer. Ultimately, it is essential to treat the remaining Barrett's esophagus as part of the treatment. Different thermal ablative therapies have been implemented to effect this treatment. They can lead to potential post-therapeutic stenosis. Furthermore, a histologic assessment of treated mucosa is not possible.

objectiveClinical evaluation of a novel, non-thermal resection device (EndoRotor®) in the treatment of non-neoplastic Barrett's esophagus was conducted.

methodsFourteen patients with early Barrett's carcinoma were treated with endoscopic resection. Subsequently, EndoRotor® therapy was performed for resection of the remaining Barrett's mucosa. Complications were assessed during the study. After a three-month period patients received follow-up endoscopy to evaluate post-therapeutic stenosis.

resultsOn average, 674 mm

conclusionEndoRotor® resection is a feasible non-thermal treatment of non-neoplastic Barrett's esophagus. Larger trials have to evaluate risks and benefits of this novel device.
