Successful endoscopic resection of an unusually enlarged and pedunculated type I gastric carcinoid tumour.

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
Three distinct gastric carcinoid (GC) tumour types have been described based on differing biological behaviour and prognoses. Type I GC tumours account for the vast majority (70%-80%), are associated with chronic atrophic gastritis and have a low metastatic potential. Type II carcinoid tumours are the least common (5%-10%), are related to Zollinger-Ellison syndrome and occur in relation to multiple neoplasia type I. Sporadic type III tumours (15%-25%) are the most aggressive type, are unrelated to gastrin over secretion and carry the worst prognosis. In this case report, we present a patient with longstanding gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) who presented with epigastric abdominal pain and tarry stools and was found to have a large gastric polyp on endoscopy. Despite current literature recommending surgical resection for larger GC tumours, endoscopic resection was successfully used to excise the tumour with pathology demonstrating complete resection with negative margins.
