Endoscopic Enucleation Is Effective and Relatively Safe in Small Gastric Subepithelial Tumors Originating from Muscularis Propria.
Article in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
backgroundGastric subepithelial tumors originating from muscularis propria (MP) are usually benign, but some have malignant potential.
aimsThe aim of this study was to evaluate the utility of endoscopic enucleation for the diagnosis and treatment of MP tumors. PATIENTS AND
methodsFrom January 2010 to February 2018, eighty patients with gastric MP tumors underwent endoscopic enucleation at our hospital. Band ligation and resection (BLR) or endoscopic muscularis resection (EMD) was performed based on considerations of tumor size (≤ 12 mm or > 12 mm). Tumor characteristics, procedure times, complete resection rates, adverse events and recurrence were analyzed.
resultsEighty patients with 82 lesions were eligible for inclusion in this study. BLR was used to treat 41 lesions. For these lesions, mean tumor size was 9.5 mm, median procedural time was 17.6 min (range 4-52), and the endoscopic complete resection rate was 100% (41/41). Perforation was developed in four patients, and was closed by endoscopic clipping. EMD was used to treat 41 lesions. Median procedure time was 66.1 min (range 12-260) and the endoscopic complete resection rate was 85.4% (35/41). Perforation occurred in eight patients, four patients received endoscopic treatment and four underwent surgery. Tumor recurrence was not observed in any patient over follow-up (mean 26.3 months).
conclusionEndoscopic enucleation appears to offer an effective, relatively safe means for diagnosing and treating gastric subepithelial tumors originating from the MP, and BLR provides a straightforward, effective, and relatively safe treatment for small MP tumors (≤ 12 mm).
