Efficacy-cost analysis of endoscopic mucosal resection and cold snare polypectomy: A propensity score matching analysis.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundAlthough substantial evidence supports the advantages of cold snare polypectomy (CSP) in terms of polypectomy efficacy and reduced postoperative adverse events, few studies have examined the cost differences between CSP and traditional endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) for the treatment of intestinal polyps.
aimTo compare the efficacy-cost of EMR and CSP in the treatment of intestinal polyps.
methodsA total of 100 patients with intestinal polyps were included in the retrospective data of our hospital from April 2022 to May 2023. According to the treatment methods, they were divided into EMR (
resultsSignificant disparities were observed in the number of polyps and smoking background between the two groups before PSM (
conclusionCSP was more cost-effective for the treatment of intestinal polyps. An age ≥ 60 years, male sex, having a number of polyps ≥ 3, and pathological type of adenoma are independent influencing factors for recurrence.
