Potential for expanded application of endoscopic hand suturing: A pilot study of 15 cases.

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
Endoscopic hand suturing (EHS) was first developed to firmly close a mucosal defect following endoscopic submucosal dissection and has the potential for expanded applications. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility and safety of EHS in various clinical settings. In this single-center pilot study, 15 patients who had diseases with potential indications for EHS were prospectively recruited. Technical success, clinical success after the procedure, and severe EHS-related adverse events (AEs) were evaluated. EHS was applied for defect closure after gastric subepithelial lesion removal under laparoscopic observation (n = 9), defect closure after rectal endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR) (n = 2), defect closure after thoracoscopy-assisted esophageal EFTR (n = 1), mucosal closure for gastric ulcer bleeding (n = 1), mucosal closure after peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) (n = 1), and postoperative anastomotic leak (n = 1). EHS was completed without severe AEs and the clinical courses were also favorable in 13 patients (87%). The median suturing time was 61 minutes. In patients with POEM and anastomotic leak, EHS was discontinued because of the narrow lumen. In conclusion, EHS appears feasible and safe in situations.
