The Role of Small-Bowel Endoscopy in the Diagnosis and Management of Small-Bowel Neuroendocrine Tumours.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are relatively rare neoplasms but represent one of the most frequent types of primary small-bowel tumours. Their incidence is rising, and this is most likely because of their more frequent early-stage detection, physician awareness, and increasing availability and use of imaging and small-bowel endoscopic techniques, such as video capsule endoscopy and device-assisted enteroscopy, which enable the detection, localisation, and histological sampling of previously inaccessible and underdiagnosed small-bowel lesions. This review summarises the role of small-bowel endoscopy in the diagnosis and management of small-bowel NETs to assist clinicians in their practice. Small-bowel endoscopy may play a complementary role in the diagnosis of these tumours alongside other diagnostic tests, such as biomarkers, conventional radiology, and functional imaging. In addition, small-bowel enteroscopy may play a role in the preoperative setting for the identification and marking of these tumours for surgical resection and the management of rare complications, such as small-bowel variceal bleeding, in cases of portal hypertension due to the encasement of mesenteric vessels in fibrotic small-bowel NETs.
