Single-incision laparoscopic surgery used to perform transanal endoscopic microsurgery (SILSTEM) for T1 rectal cancer under spinal anesthesia: report of a case.

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
Transanal endoscopic surgery has slowly gained widespread acceptance among colorectal surgeons, despite the need for specific training and the high costs of specialized instrumentation. At the other extreme, some laparoscopic surgeons recommend single port access surgery using a single-incision laparoscopic surgery port. Single-incision laparoscopic surgery was applied to perform transanal endoscopic microsurgery in a patient with T1 rectal cancer under spinal anesthesia. The patient was a 74-year-old man who presented with a 2-cm elevated lesion in the right anterior portion of the rectum. Ordinary laparoscopic instruments were used to perform submucosal resection. The tumor was completely excised from the rectal wall with the use of an ultrasonic surgical scissors. The patient recovered uneventfully and was discharged 4 days after the operation. There was no fecal incontinence or soiling during the postoperative follow-up. Colonoscopy at 4 months after the operation showed no recurrence of either adenocarcinoma or adenoma.
