A novel lumen-apposing metal stent for EUS-guided drainage of pancreatic fluid collections: A multicenter prospective study.

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 Objectives: Various lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMSs) were used for pancreatic fluid collection (PFC) drainage for many years. The structural design of LAMS needs to be improved to reduce the occurrence of adverse events. This trial assessed the efficacy and safety of a novel modified LAMS for the drainage of PFCs. Methods: This open-label, multicenter, prospective trial was done at 11 tertiary care hospitals. This study enrolled patients (18-75 years old) with confirmed diagnosis of PFC with cyst diameter no less than 6 cm. Novel LAMS (Micro-Tech Co, Ltd, Nanjing, China) was used. The primary end point was the 1-month postoperative drainage success rate. The secondary end points were technical success rate and adverse events. This study is registered with Chictr.org.cn, ChiCTR2000039955. Results: Between December 9, 2020, and December 27, 2021, 100 patients with PFC were assessed for eligibility, and 94 patients met the criteria and agreed to participate in the trial. The median size of PFC cyst was 11.23 ± 3.84 cm. The drainage success rate was 90.48% (95% CI, 83.6%-97.3%) and achieved the prespecified target value of 75% ( Conclusions: The novel LAMS used in this trial was technically feasible, efficient, and safe for the treatment of PFCs. Comparable with WON, the usage of LAMS in PPC achieved a high drainage success rate and acceptable adverse events.
