Endoscopic Full-thickness Resection for Gastric Submucosal Tumor: A Technical Analysis Study (With Video).
Article in DEN open, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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: Endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR) is an effective treatment method for gastric submucosal tumors (SMTs). We aimed to perform a technical analysis of EFTR in gastric SMT and compare it with the outcome parameters. Method: Sixty-one gastric SMTs from 60 patients were resected using EFTR. The indication criteria: size, 11-30 mm, connection to the muscularis propria on endoscopic ultrasonography, intraluminal growth type, no ulceration, and histologically evident or clinically suspicious gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). The following technical improvements were introduced during the study Periods 1-3: routine use of clip-line traction (Periods 1-3); use of a plastic bag retriever (Periods 2-3); adaptation of the reopenable clip over-the-line method (ROLM, Period 3); implementation of no-touch EFTR (Period 3); and elimination of submucosal injection (Period 3). Results: The endoscopic complete resection rate was 100%, with a similar tumor resection time (median, 50 min) throughout the periods. Specimen damage was less frequent after using the plastic bag retriever in Periods 2 and 3 ( Conclusion: Several technical improvements significantly improved the outcomes of EFTR for gastric SMTs, warranting the external validation of this technique.
