Review in Annals of gastroenterology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04810377 (Safety and Efficacy of Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Gastroenterostomy for the Treatment of Malignant Gastric Outlet Obstruction), which is not on this map. Cited by 39 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

Gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) is a clinical syndrome characterized by a variety of symptoms. It may be caused by motor disorders and by benign or malignant mechanical disease. Endoscopic management of benign disease is mainly based on balloon dilation, augmented by the use of covered self-expanding metal stents (SEMS) in refractory disease. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE) is increasingly used as an alternative method, although more studies with longer follow up are needed before it can be considered as a recommended therapy. Surgery remains the last resort. Endoscopic management of malignant GOO is based on SEMS placement as an alternative to palliative surgery, because it is a cost-effective method. The use of a covered or uncovered stent depends on patient-related variables, which include the stricture site, concomitant involvement of the bile duct, the patient's prognosis, probably the tumor type, and the use of chemotherapy. EUS-GE is a promising technique but needs more studies with longer follow up before any firm conclusions can be drawn.
