Quality of life and outcomes in patients undergoing endoscopic papillectomy
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundEndoscopic papillectomy (EP)
aimTo compare quality of life (QoL) and outcomes between DPA patients undergoing EP
methodsWe conducted a retrospective, single-center analysis involving patients treated for DPA at the Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School from 2011 to 2023. The participants completed post-discharge telephone surveys using the 12-item short form survey to assess mental (MCS) and physical component summary (PCS) scores, with norm-based scoring where ≥ 50 denotes normal. Multivariate regression analysis adjusted for confounding variables was used to compare QoL scores.
resultsCompared with EP patients, surgically treated patients had significantly lower PCS [median: 53.0, interquartile range (IQR): 46.0-55.1
conclusionEP has emerged as a QoL-preserving alternative for patients with DPA, conditional upon ensuring equivalent efficacy and safety. QoL outcomes should be considered when choosing interventions for this patient population.
