ReviewTherapeutic advances in gastrointestinal endoscopy
Endoscopic management of refractory benign oesophageal strictures.
Review in Therapeutic advances in gastrointestinal endoscopy. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Refractory benign oesophageal strictures are an infrequent presentation but a cause of significant morbidity and mortality. The treatment of these strictures has changed little in recent years, yet new evidence is emerging for the optimal timing and application of different therapies. In this article, we have carefully reviewed the current literature on the evaluation and management of refractory strictures and provided practical advice as to their management. A number of areas require attention in future research, including carefully designed randomised trials of endoscopic and medical therapies, and a focus on risk factors at a patient and molecular level to facilitate development of medical therapies that can reduce recurrent fibrosis in these patients.
