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
BACKGROUND AND
aimsWe aimed to study the feasibility of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for the removal of gastric muscularis propria tumors and to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ESD for this treatment.
methodsEighteen patients with gastric SMTs originating from the muscularis propria were treated by ESD between July 2008 and July 2011. Tumor characteristics, complications, en bloc resection rate, and local recurrence rate were evaluated.
resultsAmong the 18 patients, 11 were women (61.1 %). The median age was 65.3 ± 6.3 years old (range 30-71 years old). Seventeen tumors were resected completely by ESD (success rate 94.4 %). The mean tumor size as determined by endoscopic ultrasound was 2.6 ± 1.2 cm (range 1.0-3.5 cm). The histological diagnosis was gastrointestinal stromal tumor for 13 lesions and leiomyoma for four tumors. The mean operation time was 90 ± 38 min (range 50-120 min), and the average blood loss was 20 ml. Two patients developed perforation, which was closed by endoscopic methods with metallic clips. The tumor was closely adhered to the muscularis propria and was convex to the enterocoelia in one case. No single case had severe complications, such as GI bleeding, peritonitis, or abdominal abscess, and there were no other immediate post-procedure complications.
conclusionsESD is a safe, effective, well-tolerated, and minimally invasive therapy for the intraluminal SMTs originating from gastric muscularis propria with relatively few complications. Although there is a risk of perforation which has become manageable endoscopically.
