Comparison of subjective quality of life after endoscopic submucosal resection or surgery for early gastric cancer.
Article in Scientific reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Quality of life (QoL) has become an important issue after early gastric cancer (EGC) treatment. We aimed to compare the QoL of EGC survivors after ESD (n = 241) or laparoscopic subtotal gastrectomy (n = 241) without recurrence and to evaluate the QoL over the 5-year period after adjusting for various confounding factors related to QoL. QoL related to the gastric cancer subscale (GCS) was significantly higher in the ESD group than surgery group (p < 0.001). After adjusting for all possible confounding factors, survivors who underwent ESD still had higher QoL related to CSG than those who underwent surgery. On the analysis of interaction effects for all QoL subscales, higher QoL related to GCS of ESD group than those of surgery group has been kept over time (p = 0.983). Therefore, we concluded that EGC survivors who undergo ESD have significantly better QoL related to GCS over a 5-year period after treatment than those who undergo surgery. This may be a useful consideration when selecting treatment modalities for patients with EGC.
