Finding carcinoid tumor before bariatric surgery. Is preoperative endoscopy necessary? Case report.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionCarcinoid tumors are endocrine system-related lesions and 4% of the gastrointestinal tract's neuroendocrine tumors (NET) originate from stomach. In recent years, gastric carcinoid tumors have been reported at increasing rates on endoscopies. In this article, we will present a case of gastric carcinoid tumor detected at the upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy during preoperative bariatric surgery workup. CASE PRESENTATION: A 55 years old male patient with body mass index (BMI) 46 kg/m DISCUSSION: The routine use of upper GI endoscopy in preoperative evaluation of bariatric surgery patients still remains controversial.
conclusionUpper GI endoscopy is very important in determining various gastric pathologies and determining the most appropriate surgical method before bariatric surgery.
