Enhanced Visibility in Evaluating Gastric Cancer and Helicobacter pylori-Associated Gastritis Using Linked Color Imaging with a Light-Emitting Diode Light Source.
Article in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundIn Japan, laser light source (Laser) endoscopy is widely available, and the characteristics of light-emitting diode light source (LED) endoscopy have not been clarified.
aimsWe assessed the visibility of early gastric cancers (EGCs) and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-associated gastritis for LED endoscopy compared with laser endoscopy using white-light imaging (WLI) and linked color imaging (LCI).
methodsWe assessed 99 lesions between February 2019 and March 2020. The visibility was scored from four (excellent visibility) to one (poor visibility) by evaluating videos including EGCs and gastric mucosa captured using WLI and LCI with LED endoscopy (LED-WLI and LED-LCI, respectively) and laser endoscopy (Laser-WLI and Laser-LCI, respectively). The primary end point was the non-inferiority of the visibility of EGCs and H. pylori-associated gastritis between LED-/Laser-WLI and LED-/Laser-LCI.
resultsThe visibility scores of EGCs for LED-/Laser-WLI and LED-/Laser-LCI were 3.14/2.97 and 3.39/3.35, respectively. The visibility scores of H. pylori-associated gastritis [intestinal metaplasia (IM), diffuse redness (DR), regular arrangement of collecting venules (RAC) and map-like redness (MR)] for LED-/Laser-WLI and LED-/Laser-LCI were 3.05/2.85 and 3.60/3.50 (IM), 2.76/2.50 and 2.96/2.86 (DR), 2.69/2.44 and 2.77/2.62 (RAC) and 2.97/2.75 and 3.39/3.27 (MR). Non-inferiority was demonstrated for visualizing EGCs and H. pylori-associated gastritis.
conclusionsLED-WLI and LED-LCI can be used to visualize EGCs and H. pylori-associated gastritis with non-inferiority to Laser-WLI and Laser-LCI. Furthermore, even with LED, LCI was more effective than WLI for evaluating EGCs and H. pylori-associated gastritis. Therefore, LED endoscopy can be used to detect EGCs and evaluate H. pylori-associated gastritis accurately.
