Interventional endoscopy in inflammatory bowel disease: a comprehensive review.
Review in Gastroenterology report, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Interventional endoscopy can play a key role in the multidisciplinary management of complex inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) as an adjunct to medical and surgical therapy. The primary role of interventional IBD (IIBD) includes the treatment of Crohn's disease-related stricture, fistula, and abscess. Endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD), endoscopic stricturotomy, and placement of endoscopic stents are different forms of endoscopic stricture therapy. EBD is the most widely used therapy whereas endoscopic stricturotomy has higher long-term efficacy than EBD. Fully covered and partially covered self-expanding metal stents are useful in long and refractory strictures whereas lumen-apposing metal stents can be used in short, and anastomotic strictures. Endoscopic fistula/abscess therapy includes endoscopic fistulotomy, seton placement, endoscopic ultrasound-guided drainage of rectal/pelvic abscess, and endoscopic injection of filling agents (fistula plug/glue/stem cell). Endoscopic seton placement and fistulotomy are mainly feasible in short, superficial, single tract fistula and in those with prior surgical seton placement. Similarly, endoscopic fistulotomy is usually feasible in short, superficial, single-tract fistula. Endoscopic closure therapies like over-the-scope clips, suturing, and self-expanding metal stent should be avoided for
