1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundEndoscopic resection (ER) of tumors causes inflammation, edema, fibrosis, and adhesions in the surrounding tissue. However, little is known about the effect of ER on subsequent laparoscopic surgery for rectal tumors. The objective of this retrospective study was to analyze the effect of ER on subsequent laparoscopic surgery for rectal tumors.

methodsTwenty-eight patients underwent laparoscopic surgery for rectal adenocarcinoma with submucosal invasion or a rectal neuroendocrine tumor at our hospital between January 2005 and December 2012. A group of 14 patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery with previous ER was compared to a group of 14 patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery without previous ER.

resultsThough most fibrosis involved the submucosa after polypectomy and endoscopic mucosal resection, fibrosis after endoscopic submucosal dissection involved the muscularis propria in two patients, and the subserosa in one patient. There were no statistically significant differences in clinical outcomes between the groups.

conclusionLaparoscopic surgery after ER for rectal tumors is safe and feasible. Laparoscopic surgery is the reasonable first-choice for radical treatment of rectal tumors after ER.
