Endoscopic resection techniques for squamous premalignant lesions and early carcinoma of the esophagus: ER-Cap, MBM, and ESD, how do we choose? A multicenter experience.

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
backgroundEndoscopic resection cap technique (ER-Cap), multiband mucosectomy (MBM), and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) have been widely applied in the treatment of esophageal squamous neoplasia and cancer. However, little is known with regards to the comparison of these methods. This study aimed to compare the feasibility, safety, effectiveness, and costs of these three techniques.
methodsA retrospective analysis of patients with squamous premalignant or early malignant lesions of the esophagus undergoing ER-Cap, MBM, or ESD from January 2009 to December 2015 in one of the centers in China was performed. The procedural data and follow-up data for all patients were recorded.
resultsA total of 672 patients with 733 lesions were included; 148 lesions (133 patients) were treated with ER-Cap, 427 lesions (388 patients) with MBM, and 158 lesions (151 patients) with ESD. The mean age was 61.59 years and the male-to-female ratio was 2.78:1. The operation time was significantly shorter for ER-Cap (29.26 ± 16.73 mins,
conclusionsER-Cap, MBM, and ESD are all minimally invasive, safe, and effective methods for treating early esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. MBM could be considered as a good alternative when performed by a less-experienced endoscopist in high-incidence areas with limited resources.
