Evaluation of a New Animal Tissue-Free Bleeding Model for Training of Endoscopic Hemostasis.
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 1 paper.
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
backgroundFor endoscopists, knowledge of the available hemotherapeutic devices and materials as well as competence in using them is a life-saving expertise in the treatment of patients with acute gastrointestinal bleeding. These competences can be acquired in training on live animals, animal organs, or simulators. We present an animal tissue-free training model of the upper gastrointestinal tract for bleeding therapy.
methodsAn artificial, animal tissue-free mucosa and submucosa with the opportunity of injection and clipping therapy were created first. Patches with this artificial mucosa and submucosa were placed into silicone and latex organs with human-like anatomy. Esophageal bleeding situations were imitated as variceal bleeding and bleeding of a reflux esophagitis in latex organs. Finally, a modular training model with human anatomy and replaceable bleeding sources was created. Evaluation of the novel model for gastroscopic training was performed in a multicentric setting with endoscopic beginners and experts.
resultsEvaluation was carried out by 38 physicians with different levels of education in endoscopy. Evaluation of the model was made with grades from one (excellent) to six (bad): suitability for endoscopic training was 1.4, relevance of the endoscopic training was 1.6, and grading for haptic and optic impression of the model was 1.7.
conclusionsThe creation of a gastroscopic model for the training of hemostatic techniques without animal tissues was possible and multiple endoscopic bleeding skills could be trained in it. Evaluation showed good results for this new training option, which could be used in every endoscopic unit or other places without hygienic doubts.
