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

Endoscopic resection of gastrointestinal subepithelial tumors originating from muscularis propria is feasible and safe if performed by experienced hands. Large tumors with predominantly extraluminal growth and extensive connection of the tumor base with the muscularis propria are associated with less complete resection and more complications. An intact tumor capsule should be used as an indication of complete resection. Free air on images after endoscopic full-thickness resection may not be an accident. Submucosal endoscopic procedures are promising therapeutic procedures but are potentially associated with serious complications. Therefore, advanced endoscopic training is needed in order to perform them correctly and safely.
