Usefulness of third-generation narrow band imaging and texture and color enhancement imaging in improving visibility of superficial early gastric cancer: A study using color difference.

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
Objectives: Overlooking early gastric cancer (EGC) during endoscopy is an issue to be resolved. Image-enhanced endoscopy is expected to improve EGC detection. This study investigated the usefulness of third-generation narrow band imaging (3G-NBI) and texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) in improving the visibility of EGC using the color difference between EGC and its surrounding gastric mucosa. Methods: In this retrospective observational study, we examined 51 superficial EGCs that underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection and were observed by all three methods: 3G-NBI, TXI, and white light imaging (WLI). The primary endpoint was to compare the color difference of each method. For each EGC, we prepared one non-magnifying image for each method so that the location and size of the lesion in each image were the same. The L*a*b* color space was used to evaluate the color values. When the color values of the cancerous lesion and its surrounding mucosa were (L* Results: The median color difference was 9.2 (interquartile range, 5.3-15.7) in WLI, 13.5 (interquartile range, 9.4-19.5) in 3G-NBI, and 15.3 (interquartile range, 9.1-22.1) in TXI. Statistically, the color difference was significantly larger in 3G-NBI than in WLI ( Conclusions: Regarding color difference, both 3G-NBI and TXI were estimated to be more useful than WLI in improving the visibility of superficial EGC.
