1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundEndoscopic resection, including endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFR), was used to resect small gastric submucosal tumors (SMTs). Our team explored a method of tumor traction using a snare combined with endoclips to assist in the resection of SMTs. This study aims to explore the safety and effectiveness of the method.

methodsThis research performed a propensity-score-matching (PSM) analysis to compare ESD/EFR assisted by a snare combined with endoclips (ESD/EFR with snare traction) with conventional ESD/EFR for the resection of gastric SMTs. Comparisons were made between the two groups, including operative time,

resultsA total of 253 patients with gastric SMTs resected between January 2012 and March 2019 were included in this study. PSM yielded 51 matched pairs. No significant differences were identified between the two groups in perioperative complications or the costs of disposable endoscopic surgical accessories. However, the ESD/EFR-with-snare-traction group had a shorter median operative time (39 vs 60 min,

conclusionsESD/EFR with snare traction demonstrated a higher efficiency and
