[Impact of endoscopy and endosonography on local staging of rectal carcinoma].
Review in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2012. 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
For rectal carcinoma the decision between primary resection, neoadjuvant therapy and local excision depends on an accurate local staging. Local staging includes digital examination, rigid rectoscopy and endorectal ultrasound (EUS). The rectal digitation allows clinical staging according to the mobility of the tumor in relation to the rectal mucosa or the rectal wall. The rigid rectoscopy determines the aboral distance of the tumor from the dentate line or the anal verge. The endorectal ultrasound determines the pre-therapeutic UICC stage on the basis of evaluating the pretherapeutic T and N categories. Results of EUS should be discussed on the background of neoadjuvant therapy including response evaluation and in comparison with the results of magnetic resonance imaging. In addition, there is only little information available concerning evaluation of the circumferential resection margin by EUS. Technical improvements, such as the 3D-EUS, might be appropriate in the future to provide enhancement of EUS staging of rectal tumors.
