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

White globe appearance (WGA) is defined as a microendoscopic white lesion with a globular shape underlying the gastric epithelium and is considered a marker of gastric cancer. We recently reported that endoscopically visualized white spot (WS) corresponding to WGA appeared on the nonatrophic mucosa of patients with acid-suppressing agents (A-SA) use. We evaluated patients undergoing routine esophagogastroduodenoscopy and divided the patients into an A-SA group (
