Efficacy of Overtube in Preventing Aspiration Pneumonia During Esophageal Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection.
Article in DEN open, 2027. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objectives: Aspiration pneumonia is a potential adverse event of esophageal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Using an overtube during esophageal ESD may reduce the amount of fluid refluxing into the oral cavity and prevent aspiration pneumonia. This study aimed to clarify the preventive effects of overtubes on aspiration pneumonia during esophageal ESD. Methods: Between January 2015 and May 2020, 534 consecutive patients underwent esophageal ESD under intravenous anesthesia without endotracheal intubation at our hospital. Using propensity score matching and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW), we retrospectively evaluated the risk factors and incidence of aspiration pneumonia during esophageal ESD. Results: A total of 393 patients who underwent esophageal ESD were enrolled. After matching, 99 matched pairs of patients either had an overtube used during esophageal ESD or did not. The overall incidence of aspiration pneumonia was 15.2%. The incidence of aspiration pneumonia was significantly higher in the non-overtube group than in the overtube group (22.2% vs. 8.1%; Conclusions: Not using an overtube was a risk factor for aspiration pneumonia during esophageal ESD. Therefore, the use of an overtube is recommended to prevent aspiration pneumonia. Trial Registration: N/A.
