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 and Aims: In this study we demonstrated a novel approach to endoluminal antral gastroplasty using a transgastric trocar (Endo-TAGSS, Shawnee, Kans, USA) and laparoscopic noncutting stapler. Methods: This was a nonsurvival study performed successfully in 2 domestic pigs. After placement of the Endo-TAGSS device, a laparoscopic stapler was introduced through the trocar and used to place staples along the anterior wall, greater curvature, and posterior wall, resulting in imbrication and reduction of the gastric antrum. Postprocedure, a diagnostic necropsy was performed. Results: The endoluminal antral gastroplasty was performed successfully without immediate adverse events. Conclusions: Endo-TAGSS-assisted endoscopy can overcome limitations of current endoscopic techniques by allowing the use of larger diameter laparoscopic surgical devices in endoscopy, which permitted antral gastroplasty in this study.
