Gastroduodenal Stenting with a Flexible Stent Demonstrates Favorable Clinical Effectiveness despite Gradual Expansion: A Multicenter Prospective Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. 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
aimsThis study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of stenting with a flexible braided self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) for unresectable malignant gastric outlet obstruction (GOO).
methodsPalliative stenting was prospectively carried out at seven university hospitals between October 2017 and August 2020. All procedures were performed using a flexible branded SEMS of the same brand. The primary endpoint was clinical success rate at 7 days after stenting. Secondary endpoints were procedural success rate, adverse events, recurrent gastric outlet obstruction (RGOO), and patient survival time.
resultsSixty patients were enrolled. The procedural and clinical success rates were 100% and 90%, respectively. RGOO occurred in 15 cases (25%). Adverse events other than RGOO were found in seven cases (12%). The 50% survival time was 75.5 days (range: 52-97 days). Median expansion rates at 1, 3, and 7 days after stenting were 55%, 65%, and 75%, respectively.
conclusionsA flexible braided stent woven with relatively thin wires was used for malignant GOO. Despite a gradual expansion with slightly lower expansile force, the stent functioned sufficiently well and showed favorable results. Clinical Trials Registry ID: UMIN000029496.
