Indications and Yield of Pediatric Endoscopy in Bahrain: A Tertiary Center Experience.
Article in International journal of pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Results: Of 1,111 patients, 1,101 (99.1%) were included in the study. 589 (53.6%) patients were males. Median age at the time of endoscopy was 8 (interquartile range 3, 11) years. 1534 endoscopies were performed (1193 upper GI endoscopies (UGIE) and 341 colonoscopies) in 1296 sessions. The mean number of endoscopies per year was 59 ± 30.9 procedures with 81.4% reduction noted after coronavirus pandemic ( Conclusions: This study emphasizes a careful selection of the type of endoscopic procedures, based on the expected endoscopic yield, to diagnose and treat pediatric GI diseases. In patients with chronic abdominal pain, endoscopy should be reserved as a second-line tool to avoid unnecessary use of invasive procedures.
