Evaluating the detection rate and pathological features of polyps in patients with upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal endoscopy, 2025. 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
backgroundThe incidence of gastric polyps (GPs) has ranged from 0.30% to 6.8% in various studies. Most GPs include hyperplastic polyps (HPs), fundic gland polyps (FGPs), and adenomatous polyps (APs). Although APs have a high malignant potential, HPs have a low risk of potential harm, whereas sporadic FGPs have no malignant potential. It is not enough to determine the type and displacement of a polyp by biopsy alone; therefore, some polyps may require an extensive biopsy or complete resection.
aimTo evaluate the detection rate and pathological features of polyps in patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.
methodsThis retrospective study included patients with GPs or polyphenic lesions with polyps or malignant histology found in polyps or by gastroscopy at the Department of Gastroenterology at the Shaanxi Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from 2019 to 2023.
resultsIn a series of 10000 patients who underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, 384 (3.84%) had GPs. There were 98 males (25.5%) and 286 females (74.5%). The mean age of patients was 62.8 ± 10.4 (36-75) years. The frequencies of HPs, APs, and FGPs were 88.5%, 5.2%, and 2.1%, respectively. The polyp size of 274 patients (71.3%) was ≤ 1 cm. Polyps were found in 262 cases (68.2%). The most common sites for polyps were the lumen and body of the intestine. Endoscopic polypectomy was performed in 128 patients. Bleeding events were observed and endoscopic treatment was required after endoscopic polypectomy.
conclusionThe incidence of GPs was low. HPs were the most common types of GPs. Of note, as GPs have the potential to develop into adenocarcinoma or precancerous lesions, we suggest that appropriate GP resection technology (
