Underwater endoscopic mucosal resection for colorectal lesions: a meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Surgical endoscopy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
backgroundUnderwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) of colorectal lesions is emerging as an alternative method to conventional endoscopic mucosal resection (CEMR). This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of UEMR for colorectal lesions.
methodsThe PubMed, Embase, Cochrane and Web of Science databases were searched before May 10, 2020. The primary outcomes were en bloc resection rate (feasibility) and adverse event rate (safety). The secondary outcome was recurrence and residual adenoma rate. If there was a comparison between UEMR and CEMR, data about en bloc resection, delayed bleeding, and recurrence and residual adenoma were extracted and compared. The pooling of the effect size was conducted using random-effects models, and the Q-statistic, τ
resultsSeventeen studies (759 patients, 893 lesions) were included. The pooled estimate for the en bloc resection rate was 59% (95% CI 43-75%) with significant heterogeneity (I
conclusionsUEMR for colorectal lesions was capable of a high en bloc resection rate, low adverse event rate and low recurrence. UEMR may be considered an effective and safe alternative for treating colorectal lesions.
