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 full-thickness resection has become more and more popular. One of the most important parts of this procedure is the closure of these full-thickness defects. Apart from conventional through-the-scope (TTS) clips, several different methods and devices have emerged as safe and efficacious in recent years. New clips include the anchor pronged TTS clips, dual-action tissue clips, and over-the-scope-clips. There are also new line or loop-assisted closure methods such as clip loop method, reopenable clip over line method, loop 9 method, and the internal-traction-assisted suspended closure method. New devices include the helical tacking system and endoscopic suturing device. This review article will discuss in details the usage of these different methods and available literature on comparison between the different closure methods.
