Submucosal Tunneling Endoscopic Resection for the Treatment of Gastrointestinal Submucosal Tumors Originating from the Muscularis Propria Layer.
Review in Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Surgical resection and endoscopic resection comprise two alternative options for the treatment of submucosal tumors (SMTs) originating from the muscularis propria (MP) layer. Endoscopic resection is minimally invasive compared with surgical resection. Conventional non-tunneling techniques, such as endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), endoscopic submucosal excavation (ESE), and endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFR) have been demonstrated to be safe and effective. However, these techniques fail to maintain the integrity of the mucosa and induce high risk of perforation, infection, and postoperative strictures. Submucosal tunneling endoscopic resection (STER) is a novel surgical technique that can maintain the integrity of the mucosa by establishing a tunnel between the submucosal and the MP layers. STER has been proven to be effective and safe for the treatment of SMTs. Currently, STER has become a standard treatment for gastrointestinal (GI) SMTs originating from the MP layer, notably in China. In the present review, we describe the indications, procedures, postoperative care, efficacy and safety outcomes, and future perspectives of STER for GI SMTs originating from the MP layer.
