Novel Technique of Endoscopic Ultrasonography for the Differential Diagnosis of Gallbladder Lesions and Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms: A Single-Center Prospective Study.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Detective flow imaging endoscopic ultrasonography (DFI-EUS) is an innovative imaging modality that was developed to detect fine vessels and low-velocity blood flow without contrast agents. We evaluate its utility for the differential diagnosis of gallbladder lesions and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs). We enrolled patients who underwent DFI-EUS, e-FLOW EUS, and contrast-enhanced EUS for gallbladder lesions or IPMNs. The detection of vessels using DFI-EUS and e-FLOW EUS was compared with that via contrast-enhanced EUS and pathological findings. The vessel pattern was also categorized as regular or irregular. Of the 33 lesions included, there were final diagnoses of 13 IPMNs and 20 gallbladder lesions. DFI-EUS was significantly superior to e-FLOW EUS for discriminating between mural nodules and mucous clots and between solid gallbladder lesions and sludge using the presence or absence of vessel detection in lesions (
