Endoscopic treatment of gastroesophageal reflux: a narrative review.
Review in Porto biomedical journal. 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
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common chronic disease that affects one-third of the population worldwide. In recent years, there have been significant advances for diagnostic workup, which leads to better identification of reflux-related complications. Classically, the mainstay of therapy has been proton pump inhibitor and lifestyle and dietary modifications. For refractory GERD the gold-standard therapies are surgical antireflux procedures. Recently, endoscopic procedures have emerged as safe and efficient alternatives to surgery. These could represent a less invasive approach, with scarce morbidity and with a well-tolerated profile. Each of the existing endoscopic techniques for the treatment of GERD are addressed in this report, highlighting their potential advantages, aiming at helping decide the best management of these patients. Future studies, with larger numbers of patients, may allow a definitive role for these techniques in the management of GERD to be established.
