[Neuroendocrine neoplasms of the appendix and colorectum].
Review in Der Pathologe, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Appropriate diagnosis and treatment of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) of the appendix and colorectum requires a detailed knowledge of their proper classification according to the updated WHO and TNM systems. The WHO classification distinguishes well differentiated NEN, the neuroendocrine tumors (G1 and G2 NETs), from the poorly differentiated carcinomas (G3 NECs). While NETs are common in the appendix and rectum, NECs occur predominantly in the colon. G1 appendiceal and rectal NETs of 1 cm in size or below that do not invade either the muscular wall or vessels bear almost no metastatic risk and can be treated by appendectomy or endoscopic resection. G2 appendiceal and rectal NETs larger than 1 cm in size in combination with other risk factors have an increased risk of metastasis and need to be treated more aggressively. NECs of the colon usually require chemotherapy in addition to resection. Today, most patients with NETs of the appendix and rectum have an excellent prognosis when these diagnostic and therapeutic guidelines are borne in mind.
