The Role of Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Shear Wave Elastography in Pancreatic Diseases.
Review in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Elastography is a non-invasive imaging modality that has been developed for the evaluation of the stiffness of various organs. It is categorized into two main types: strain elastography and shear wave elastography. While strain elastography offers valuable information on the mechanical properties of the organ being studied, it is limited by the qualitative nature of its measurements and its reliance on operator skills. On the other hand, shear wave elastography overcomes these limitations as it provides a quantitative assessment of tissue stiffness, offers more reproducibility, and is less operator-dependent. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided shear wave elastography (EUS-SWE) is an emerging technique that overcomes the limitations of transabdominal ultrasound in the evaluation of the pancreas. A growing body of literature has demonstrated its safety and feasibility in the evaluation of pancreatic parenchyma. This article provides a comprehensive review of the current state of the literature on EUS-SWE, including its technical aspects, clinical applications in the evaluation of various pancreatic conditions, technological limitations, and future directions.
