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

A 39-year-old woman underwent a preoperative diagnostic colonoscopy for cervical cancer. A 3-mm neuroendocrine tumor (NET) was incidentally detected in the rectum. The NET was observed via 7 colonoscopies over 10 years while giving priority to treating the cervical cancer. Complete cervical cancer remission was confirmed at the 10-year follow-up examination; therefore, endoscopic treatment for the NET was subsequently performed. The NET showed almost no change in either size or morphology over the 10-year period. This case illustrates the possible very-slow progression of a small NET, suggesting its benign behavior.
