Endoscopic submucosal dissection for superficial esophageal cancer with near-circumferential lesions: our experience with 40 patients.
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundNowadays, there are few reports indicating whether early esophageal cancers (EsC) with near-circumferential lesions are still appropriate for the endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) procedure.
methodsBetween November 2009 and December 2013, a total of 40 patients with early esophageal cancers were treated with ESD. The characteristics of the patients, the ESD procedure variables, the rates of en bloc resection, and the major complications were evaluated. The outcomes listed were reliably followed up, and postoperative endoscopic balloon dilation was conducted to treat the esophageal strictures.
resultsA total of 40 patients with superficial esophageal cancers were treated with ESD procedure. The extent of the lesions as a proportion of the whole circumference of the esophageal lumen ranged from three-quarters (18/40) to four-fifths (4/40) and complete circumference (18/40). The median longitudinal diameter of the lesions was 50 mm. The median procedure time was 92.5 min (range, 70-125 min). The en bloc resection rate was 100 % (40/40). Immediate bleeding, perforation, and postoperative stenosis were noted in 7.5 (3/40), 7.5 (3/40), and 45 % (18/40) of the patients. The median number of endoscopic balloon dilations (EBDs) was 4 (range 1-14). Additional surgical treatment was performed in 2 cases, and local recurrence was detected in 1 patient (2.5 %). 2 patients (5 %) died of EsC 3 months after ESD.
conclusionsThese data will greatly expand the criteria for the use of ESD in esophageal cancer and increase the number of patients eligible for endoscopic treatment and the acceptance of the ESD procedure.
