Effective Use of Topical Sucralfate in the Conservative Management of Expanded Gastrostomy Tract Reduction.
Article in JPGN reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Sucralfate is a common medication used to treat duodenal ulcers, gastric ulcers, and gastritis. The off-label use of topical sucralfate has been described in the literature to induce wound healing in epithelial injury. Yet, current literature lacks clinical depictions in the application of sucralfate to treat a common gastrostomy tube complication, that of a dilated gastrostomy site. We present a case report of a medically complex pediatric patient where topical sucralfate was applied to reduce the size of a large gastrostomy stomal defect. Sucralfate was used to reduce healing time and allow introduction of a new gastrostomy device through the same stomal opening without the need for additional procedures or surgeries.
