Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy: Procedure, Complications and Management.
Review in Brain & NeuroRehabilitation, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is considered in patients with insufficient oral intake who need enteral feeding or therapeutic gastric decompression. PEG tube feeding is generally superior to nasogastric tube feeding in terms of patients' comfort, long-term use, and feeding efficiency. Patient selection for PEG, the proper endoscopic insertion technique, early recognition of complications, and appropriate management are important for patient care. During preparation, adequate management of anticoagulation and antithrombotic agents are important to prevent bleeding, and prophylactic antibiotics prevent wound infection. Most complications are minor; however, major complications that require surgical correction or are life-threatening may occur, such as wound infection, bleeding, buried bumper syndrome, colocutaneous fistula, perforation, volvulus, and injuries to other organs. This review presents practical guidelines for the selection and preparation of patients, endoscopic insertion methods, and complication management strategies.
