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 74-year-old female, who was diagnosed with superficial esophageal cancer, underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) at another hospital, but a perforation occurred during the procedure. The perforation was closed with endoscopic clips, and the ESD was halted. The patient was referred to our hospital, and ESD was retried. There was severe fibrosis around the lesion, and injections into the submucosal layer were difficult. In addition, it was not possible to identify the submucosal layer, and making an oral-side incision caused a large perforation along the incision line. As continuing the submucosal dissection with an endoknife was considered difficult, the lesion was finally resected with hybrid ESD using a snare. The perforation was closed using polyglycolic acid (PGA) sheets and fibrin glue. Endoscopy performed 6 days later showed that the defect had been closed, and no contrast leakage was detected. Follow-up endoscopy conducted 3 months after the ESD showed ulcer healing at the dissection site and scar formation, but no residual tumor or esophageal stricture was noted. Our experience suggests that the use of PGA sheets with fibrin glue is a feasible, safe, and effective way of treating large esophageal perforations during ESD.
