1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundTraction-assisted techniques have been widely applied in gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), enabling more stable and distinct visualization of the submucosa through mucosal elevation. However, there remains a notable scarcity of reports on their application in managing large gastric mucosal lesions. Here, we present a case series introducing the application of elastic ring traction-assisted resection for large gastric mucosal lesions and evaluate its efficacy and safety.

methodsThis prospective case series study enrolled 13 patients with large gastric mucosal lesions (> 3.0 cm in diameter) who underwent an in vivo elastic ring traction-assisted ESD procedure between April 2023 and September 2024 at our endoscopic center.

resultsWith the application of elastic ring traction, the mean dissection speed was 34.70 mm

conclusionIn the treatment of large gastric mucosal lesions exceeding 3.0 cm in diameter, elastic ring traction-assisted ESD demonstrates effectiveness and safety. However, further prospective controlled studies are needed to comprehensively verify the reliability of this method.
