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

backgroundSarcopenia has been indicated to be related to the postoperative outcome of patients with various digestive tract diseases. However, no studies have investigated the association between sarcopenia and esophageal stenosis after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD).

aimTo explore the correlation between sarcopenia and post-ESD esophageal stenosis, and subsequently develop a risk prediction model.

methodsRetrospective data from 499 patients who underwent esophageal ESD were collected. After stratification

resultsSarcopenia was significantly associated with post-ESD esophageal stenosis (48.23%

conclusionSarcopenia is an independent risk predictor of post-ESD esophageal stenosis. Our model integrating muscle mass assessment aids in early high-risk identification and intervention.
