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

Background: Pyloric gland adenoma (PGA) is a distinct subtype of duodenal adenoma. PGA has been increasingly recognized as a histologically and molecularly distinct entity; however, its endoscopic features have not been precisely described. This study aims to investigate the endoscopic characteristics of duodenal PGA, including the association of their putative precursors, Brunner's gland hyperplasia (BGH), and gastric epithelial heterotopia/metaplasia (GEM/H). Methods: This study was a single-center, retrospective case series. Fourteen consecutive patients with duodenal PGA were retrieved from the pathological database. PGA was diagnosed according to the World Health Organization classification. Results: The median tumor size was 22.5 mm (range: 12-40 mm), and 79% of cases were located in the first part of the duodenum. Six PGAs demonstrated high-grade dysplasia. PGA could be classified into two subtypes based on their appearance: villous lobulated type and smoothly protruding type. BGH and GEM/H were identified in the background mucosa in 28% and 7% of the cases, respectively. BGH was more abundant in the background mucosa of the PGA group than in the control group Conclusions: The 14 patients with PGA demonstrated characteristic endoscopic findings. BGH and GEM/H might be precursors of PGA.
