A narrative review: narrow-band imaging endoscopic classifications.
Review in Quantitative imaging in medicine and surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Background and Objective: With the development of endoscopic techniques, narrow-band imaging (NBI) has been widely used in the diagnosis of various types of diseases. NBI can detect mucosal lesions at an early stage and different classification strategies have been established to help clinicians in disease diagnosis. However, there is currently no consensus for the classification criteria. This report summarizes the current classifications of diseases using NBI, so as to provide a comprehensive understanding of the various manifestations of mucosal lesions under NBI, and to promote the development of more practical NBI classifications. Methods: The PubMed database was searched for English language articles published between January 1994 and November 2021 using the keywords 'narrow band imaging', 'NBI', and 'classification'. Key Content and Findings: We systematically summarized the NBI classifications and manifestations of different diseases. The morphology of the mucosa and vessels was used as the basis of most classifications. These classifications are mainly helpful to distinguish benign and malignant tumors and to detect early neoplastic lesions. Conclusions: This review summarized existing NBI classifications for different systems. These classifications will be updated as the understanding of diseases increases and new optical techniques become available to better assist doctors in making clinical decisions.
