Nomogram for Predicting the Risk of Complications after Endoscopic Foreign Body Removal from the Adult Upper Gastrointestinal Tract.
Trial report in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2024. 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
backgroundIngested foreign bodies may become impacted in the upper gastrointestinal tract, requiring endoscopic removal.
aimsTo establish and validate a nomogram to determine the risk of complications following endoscopic foreign body removal.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the data of 1510 adult patients who underwent endoscopic removal of ingested foreign bodies between January 2019 and December 2022. All participants were randomly allocated in a 7:3 ratio to the training (n = 1057) and validation (n = 453) cohorts. A nomogram for the development of major complications associated with endoscopic foreign body removal was established based on risk factors identified by logistic regression analysis.
resultsFour independent risk factors for the development of major complications were identified by multivariate regression analysis: older age, impaction time > 24 h, type of foreign body (animal bones and jujube pits), and number of pressure points exerted on the digestive tract wall (one and ≥ two). The nomogram constructed using these factors showed favorable discriminatory values, with an area under the curve of 0.76 (95% confidence interval, 0.73-0.78) in the training cohort and 0.74 (95% confidence interval, 0.72-0.76) in the validation cohort.
conclusionsOlder patients who ingested bones or jujube pits with more pressure points exerted on the digestive tract wall more than 24 h earlier should be considered most at risk of major complications after endoscopic removal of foreign bodies. The nomogram established in this study can be conveniently used to assess patients and develop treatment plans for the management of foreign body ingestion.
