1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Although gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is widely used, the degree of difficulty varies greatly depending on the lesion. Since the multi-loop traction device (MLTD) has been suggested to shorten the procedure time in colorectal ESD, we examined the efficacy and safety of using the MLTD in gastric ESD. Thirty patients with gastric neoplasms were prospectively enrolled from February 2022 to December 2022, and the outcomes of ESD with the MLTD were evaluated. The primary outcomes were procedure time and dissection speed. The secondary outcomes were en bloc and R0 resection rates, MLTD attachment time, and complications of ESD with the MLTD. After excluding 1 patient, 29 patients (29 lesions) were treated by ESD with the MLTD. The median procedure time was 26 min (range, 9-210 min), and the median submucosal dissection speed was 39.9 mm
