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
backgroundGastric subepithelial lesions (SELs) are elevated lesions originating from the muscularis mucosa, submucosa, or muscularis propria, and may also include extraluminal lesions. For small SELs (less than 5 cm), complete endoscopic excision is the preferred treatment. Endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR) has proven to be an effective approach.
aimTo evaluate the efficacy of the interrupted closure technique compared to the traditional closure technique in EFTR for gastric SELs.
methodsThis single-center, prospective, randomized controlled trial was conducted at a tertiary hospital from September 2023 to September 2024. A total of 90 patients who underwent EFTR for gastric SELs were randomly allocated to either the interrupted closure group (
resultsAll patients had complete resection and wound closure without any severe postoperative complications. The incidence of intraoperative gas-related complications was significantly lower in the interrupted closure group than in the traditional closure group (2.27%
conclusionThe interrupted closure technique in EFTR for treating gastric SELs is safe and effective, reducing the incidence of intraoperative gas complications and postoperative infections.
