[Endoscopic Anti-Reflux Therapy for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease: A Present-Day Perspective].
Review in Acta gastroenterologica Latinoamericana. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Gastroesophageal reflux disease has consistently been the most frequently diagnosed gastrointestinal disease in the USA and has an increasing incidence and prevalence worldwide. The mainstay of therapy has traditionally been medical management, including lifestyle and dietary modifications. Nevertheless, a significant proportion of patients have a suboptimal response to proton pump inhibitors or are unwilling to take lifelong medication due to concerns about long-term adverse effects. In those patients found to be refractory to medical management or with a contraindication to medications, the next step up has been surgical anti-reflux procedures. Recently, innovative advancements in therapeutic endoscopy have created numerous options for the endoscopic management of gastroesophageal reflux disease offering a minimally invasive option for these patients. Nonetheless, the role of endoscopic procedures remains controversial due to limited long-term and comparative data, although they are beginning to be taken into consideration in the latest gastroesophageal reflux disease management guidelines. In this review we will discuss the various endoscopic therapy options available.
