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

backgroundEndoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of superficial esophageal cancer has been used increasingly as an alternative to surgery because it is minimally invasive and has a high rate of en bloc resection. We previously reported that the double endoscopic intraluminal operation (DEILO) is a useful technique for ESD of early esophageal cancers. In the current study, we showed comparable short-term data between DEILO and conventional ESD groups to demonstrate the further advanced use of DEILO.

methodsWe studied 111 esophageal cancer patients with 111 lesions treated using endoscopic surgery between January 2010 and June 2016 at Gunma University Hospital. Of the patients, 51 underwent DEILO (DEILO group) and 60 underwent conventional ESD (ESD group). We compared the operable performance, complications, and pathological outcome between the ESD and DEILO groups.

resultsThere was no significant difference in operable performance. However, the DEILO group showed a significantly lower rate of mediastinal emphysema compared to the ESD group (p = 0.025). Overall, the DEILO group showed a lower complication rate compared to the ESD group, although there was no apparent significance.

conclusionTo our knowledge, this is the first report comparing DEILO and conventional ESD for esophageal cancer. The results showed that DEILO is not inferior to conventional ESD. DEILO is an excellent endoscopic surgical method, although it has some limitations compared to conventional ESD.
