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

Endoscopic procedures have been integral to the management of patients with liver disease, primarily focusing on luminal interventions such as variceal band ligation. Since the introduction of endoscopic ultrasound, the breadth of procedures has rapidly expanded, leading to the emergence of a new field known as endoscopic hepatology or "endohepatology." This domain integrates endoscopic diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, particularly those which are endoscopic ultrasound-based, into hepatology practice. The comprehensive nature of endohepatology has revolutionized patient care by facilitating a streamlined yet comprehensive approach that enhances efficacy, reduces resource utilization and improves patient satisfaction. Patients can now undergo multiple procedures, such as variceal surveillance and endoscopic ultrasound-liver biopsy in a single session. This review explains the current landscape of endohepatology, highlighting established practices, recent technology advancements, and future directions in the field.
