Polypoid lesions detected in the upper gastrointestinal endoscopy: A retrospective analysis in 19560 patients, a single-center study of a 5-year experience in Turkey.

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
objectiveIn our study, we aimed to evaluate the endoscopic features such as prevalence and localization of polypoid lesions determined by us using esophagogastroduodenoscopy and histopathological characteristics of biopsy specimens taken in detail.
methodsThe data of 19,560 patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal endoscopy for any reason between 2009 and 2015 in our endoscopy unit were screened retrospectively and endoscopic and histopathological findings were analyzed in detail.
resultsIn our study, the polypoid lesion was detected in 1.60% (n=313) of 19,560 patients. The most common localization of the polypoid lesions was determined to be gastric localization (n=301, 96.2%) and antrum with a rate of 33.5% (n=105). When 272 patients in whom biopsy specimen could be taken was investigated, the most frequently seen lesion was polyp (n=115, 43.4%). Hyperplastic polyps (n=81, 29.8%) were the most frequently seen type among all polyps. In histopathological evaluation of the lesions, the prevalence rates of intestinal metaplasia (IM), surrounding tissue IM, atrophy, dysplasia, and neoplasia (adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, neuroendocrine tumor, and metastatic tumor) among premalignant lesions were determined to be 16.9%, 11.2%, 4.1%, 1.1%, and 3.7%, respectively.
conclusionPolypoid lesions can be seen in endoscopic investigations. In histopathological investigations, while the vast majority of these lesions are benign polyps, some of them are diagnosed as premalignant or malignant lesions. In our study, we determined malignant lesions higher than the similar studies in the literature. This condition shows how effective endoscopic procedure and histopathological evaluation are of vital importance.
