Treatment of rectal adenomas by transanal endoscopic microsurgery: 15 years' experience.
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 35 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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 authors present their experience with rectal adenomas managed by transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM). The goals of this study were to examine our institution's experience by evaluating surgical morbidity, mortality, and local recurrence rate.
methodsThis retrospective study investigated 402 patients who underwent TEM a for preoperative diagnosis of adenoma from January 1993 to October 2008. The mean age was 65 years (range = 22-92 years). All patients were regularly followed up to determine treatment efficacy in terms of local recurrence rate.
resultsNo 30-day perioperative mortality occurred. No conversion to laparoscopic or open procedures was reported. Minor complications occurred in 28 (7%) patients, whereas major complications were found only in 2 (0.5%) patients. Definitive histology confirmed adenomas in 366 cases (91%). At a mean follow-up of 84 months (range = 1-190 months), 16 (4%) adenomas recurred and were successfully retreated by TEM [14 cases (87.5%)] and by conventional surgery [2 patients (12.5%)]. No further recurrences were observed at subsequent follow-up.
conclusionThe findings warrant the conclusion that TEM is a safe, effective treatment for rectal adenomas where endoscopic removal is not applicable and has low morbidity and no mortality.
