Comparative analysis of gastric emptying between patients undergoing EUS-guided gastroenterostomy and enteral stent placement: Pilot analysis.
Article in Endoscopy international open, 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
Background and study aims: Previous studies show that endoscopic ultrasound-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE) is better than enteral stents (ESs) in terms of clinical success and need for reintervention in the long term. Gastric atony and stent placement across a tumor can lead to poor gastric emptying after ES placement. We aimed to compare gastric emptying across ES and EUS-GE to assess the benefit of EUS-GE over ES in the short-term. Patients and methods: In this pilot study, patients who underwent ES or EUS-GE for palliation of gastric outlet obstruction were included. A gastric emptying study was performed 2 weeks after the procedure after consumption of a semisolid test-meal (Indian porridge) labelled with Tc-Sulphur. The primary outcome was gastric emptying t1/2 between ES and EUS-GE. Results: Forty patients were included in this study (21 ES, 19 EUS-GE; mean age 54 years, 27 males). EUS-GE had a faster emptying t1/2 as compared with ES (72 mins vs 118 mins) ( Conclusions: EUS-GE was associated with better gastric emptying compared with ES, suggesting a benefit that may translate into clinical benefit even in the short term.
