A Handy Endoscopic Tool: Modification of a Latex Glove for Successful Foreign Body Extraction.
Article in Cureus, 2025. 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
While foreign body (FB) ingestion primarily affects children, it commonly occurs in adults during contextual meals. This case report presents a 39-year-old male who accidentally swallowed a piece of his dental bridge appliance while eating. Retrieval was faced with the challenge of an exposed metal edge visible during endoscopy, placing the patient at risk for mucosal laceration and perforation. A protective latex hood was created from a surgical glove in the absence of an available premanufactured hood or appropriately sized overtube. This case highlights a simple, resourceful technique for mucosal protection during high-risk FB extraction when standard equipment is unavailable.
