Early gastric cancer with ball valve syndrome treated by endoscopic submucosal dissection.
Article in Clinical journal of gastroenterology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
An 84-year-old woman with pneumonia, congestive heart failure and chronic renal failure presented for iron-deficiency anemia and appetite loss. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed a 60-mm sub-pedunculated tumor arising from the antrum of the stomach. The tumor was friable, with bleeding, and prolapsed into the duodenal bulb, the ball valve syndrome. The tumor was considered the cause of the anemia and appetite loss. Attempted endoscopic reduction of the prolapsing tumor was unsuccessful, but the base of its stalk could be identified through the transparent hood; thus, we removed the tumor with endoscopic submucosal dissection. The tumor was retrieved successfully, and pathohistological examination revealed the tumor to be a well-differentiated adenocarcinoma. This case suggests that endoscopic submucosal dissection is useful as an alternative to surgery for removal of gastric tumors that have prolapsed into the duodenal bulb when polypectomy was difficult, but provided the tumor's attachment site can be identified endoscopically.
