Recent Advances in Gastrointestinal Cancer Endoscopic Diagnosis and Treatment: Focusing on Older Adults.
Review in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Recent advances in endoscopic equipment have improved the diagnosis of gastrointestinal tumors. Image-enhanced endoscopy, including narrow-band imaging, blue light imaging, and linked color imaging, has unified magnifying observation classification methods and significantly improved the qualitative and quantitative diagnostic performance of gastrointestinal epithelial tumors. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), a minimally invasive treatment for early-stage gastrointestinal cancer, is widely used. The aging population in Japan has been gradually increasing. Despite this, ESD has shown good outcomes in older adults. However, long-term prognostic analyses should take into account the high mortality rate from other illnesses. Prognostic indicators such as the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and the Prognostic Nutrition Index (PNI) should be used to determine whether ESD should be performed. Even in cases of noncurative resection, follow-up without additional surgical resection is an option if there are other comorbidities that affect the prognosis.
