EUS-guided stent removal in buried lumen-apposing metal stent syndrome: a case series.
Article in VideoGIE : an official video journal of the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
BACKGROUND AND
aimsLumen-apposing metal stents (LAMSs) play an increasing role in transgastric and transduodenal drainage of pancreatic fluid collections and allow novel EUS-guided interventions. Alongside the main adverse events of bleeding and occlusion, LAMSs can be overgrown by mucosa, which leads to the inability to visualize the stent in endoscopy.
methodsWe describe a series of 4 cases of buried LAMSs that were removed under EUS guidance for identification of the stent followed by removal with rat-tooth forceps.
resultsThe median in situ time of the LAMSs in the reported 4 cases was 53 days. All stents could no longer be visualized endoscopically when drainage of necrosis was complete. All 4 buried LAMSs could be identified by EUS and were removed successfully with forceps. In 1 case, balloon dilation of the stent tract was performed before stent removal. No adverse events were observed after the procedure.
conclusionsBuried stent syndrome is a rare adverse event of LAMSs. Here we describe a safe and effective approach for stent identification and removal without prior mucosal dissection.
