Blue laser imaging with acetic acid enhancement improved the detection rate of gastric intestinal metaplasia.
Article in Lasers in medical science, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Our aim was to evaluate the ability of blue laser imaging (BLI) combined with acetic acid (BLI-AA) to detect gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM). Participants undergoing gastroscopy from July 2017 to February 2018 in our hospital were enrolled prospectively. The abilities of white light imaging endoscopy, BLI endoscopy, and BLI-AA to detect GIM were compared. One hundred six patients undergoing gastroscopy met the inclusion criteria. GIM was diagnosed in 41 patients. For BLI-AA, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive, and negative predictive values were 85.4%, 84.6%, 77.8%, and 90.2% respectively. The diagnostic accuracy rate for BLI-AA was 84.9%, which was higher than that of white light imaging endoscopy and BLI endoscopy. For target biopsy, the GIM detection rate for the BLI-AA mode was significantly higher (77.8%, 105/135) than that for the BLI mode (58.3%, 84/144) or the white light endoscopy mode (40.4%, 57/141) (p < 0.05). BLI-AA is an efficient and simple method for the detection of GIM.
