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

Localized small rectal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) without any vascular involvement rarely metastasize, and their resection alone is considered curative. We herein report a case of localized rectal NET (10×8 mm) without vascular involvement. Although resected initially, it recurred as liver metastasis 30 years later. For rectal NETs smaller than 10 to 20 mm, surveillance for 12 months is considered sufficient. However, this case suggests that such tumors can recur even 30 years after curative resection. The interval of recurrence is the longest among reported cases.
