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

Background and objectives: We recently developed a balloon-assisted device for EUS-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE) to enhance the safety and convenience of the procedure. This pilot study was conducted to evaluate the safety and feasibility of this device. Methods: A retrospective analysis of data of patients who underwent EUS-GE using this balloon-assisted device at our institution from March 2024 to July 2024 was conducted. The primary end point was the procedure time, and the secondary end points were the volume of water injection, technical success rate, clinical success rate, and adverse events (AEs). Results: A total of 20 patients (male: 55%; female: 45%) were enrolled, with a mean age of 67.7 ± 9.9 years. The mean procedure time was 29.3 ± 9.4 minutes, and the mean intraoperative water infusion in the jejunum was 92.5 (80-117.5) mL. The technical success rate was 100% (20/20). The clinical success rate was 95% (19/20). One patient (5%) experienced mild abdominal pain after the procedure. No other AEs, such as bleeding, perforation, stent occlusion, or migration, were observed during follow-up. The median follow-up duration was 132 (74-170) days. Conclusion: The balloon-assisted device facilitates the application of EUS-GE, with short procedure time, less intraoperative water injection, high technical success rate, and low incidence of AEs.
