Transgastric submucosal excision of small- to medium-sized gastrointestinal stromal tumours by pure minimally invasive approach.
Article in Journal of minimal access surgery. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
aimThe aim of this study is to evaluate the results of a single and common approach for transgastric submucosal excision of small- to medium-sized gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST) having different locations in upper two-third of the stomach by pure minimally invasive approach. MATERIALS AND
methodsA retrospective study from February 2012 to January 2015 on 11 patients was conducted including both male and female. Their age ranged from 40 to 65 years. All were subjected to laparoscopic transgastric submucosal excision of GIST in upper two-third of the stomach with 1 cm margin having different locations in stomach. Excised tumours were subjected to histopathological study. These patients were followed for 12 months assessing operative time, post-operative complications, conversion rates, morbidity, hospital stay and recurrence rate.
resultsDuration of surgery was 150.6 ± 20.4 min. Mean hospital stay was 8 (range: 7-10) days. There were no post-operative complications. There were no conversions to open procedure. There were no recurrences. Morbidity was comparable to any other laparoscopic procedures.
conclusionWe conclude that a single and common approach of transgastric submucosal excision of small- to medium-sized stromal tumours with 1 cm margin having different locations in upper two-third of stomach, by pure minimally invasive approach, has a better outcome and brings a uniformity in laparoscopic management of GIST.
