Endoscopic Upper GI Screening.
Review in Visceral medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The rationale behind endoscopic screening of the upper gastrointestinal tract (GIT) in the West is different from Asian countries with a high prevalence of gastric cancer. If epidemiological data on upper GIT cancer in the Western world is considered, then endoscopic screening of the upper GIT must target premalignant conditions as well and, furthermore, lay emphasis on the assessment of the entire upper GIT in high-risk individuals from the mouth till the duodenum. Although data on the incidence, prevalence, and further development of premalignant conditions in the upper GIT is lacking, a risk-based approach to endoscopic screening will be more cost-effective than a general screening approach. Finally, endoscopists need to be educated and trained in the assessment of the upper GIT during screening endoscopy.
