Barnacle-like lesions in the gastric mucosa: Clinicopathological study of a novel endoscopic finding.
Article in Endoscopy international open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Map-like redness is a known gastric mucosal finding observed after Patients and methods: We analyzed clinical characteristics in 436 consecutive patients examined at Kawasaki Medical School General Medical Center. Histopathological examination was conducted in 43 patients, with 65 biopsies taken from barnacle-like lesions and 17 from the surrounding mucosa. The 43 patients comprised 20 patients biopsied at General Medical Center and 23 patients at Junpukai. Results: In total, 413 patients (208 women) were included in the analysis after excluding 23 patients based on exclusion criteria. Barnacle-like lesions were identified in 66 patients (16.0%), most frequently around the gastric angle, and were significantly more common in patients with mild atrophy of the fundic mucosa. Of the 66 patients with barnacle-like lesions, 65 were considered to have a post- Conclusions: Barnacle-like lesions are a characteristic endoscopic finding of gastric mucosa post-infected with
