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: Underwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) has been widely adopted for the treatment of superficial nonampullary duodenal epithelial tumors (SNADETs). The aim of this study was to identify predictors of local recurrence and piecemeal resection in UEMR for SNADETs. Methods: This is a retrospective single-center study. Patients who underwent UEMR for SNADETs between November 2017 and October 2024 were included. We documented clinicopathologic characteristics of patients and lesions, noted procedure-related outcomes, and evaluated local recurrence. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to assess recurrence-free survival, and logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the predictors of piecemeal resection. Results: Among the 367 patients, the rate of piecemeal resection was 11.2%, and the rate of en bloc resection with histologically tumor-free horizontal and vertical margins (R0) was 65.1%. No intraoperative perforations occurred; intraoperative bleeding was observed in 1.9%. Kaplan-Meier analysis of recurrence-free survival showed significantly poorer outcomes in the piecemeal resection group than the en bloc resection group (log-rank test, Conclusions: Piecemeal resection was a risk factor for local recurrence in UEMR for SNADETs. In addition, each 1-mm increase in lesion size and a flat macroscopic type were significant independent predictors of piecemeal resection.
