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) is accepted as the standard treatment for early-stage esophageal neoplasia. However, esophageal perforation may occur, leading to mediastinitis and pneumothorax, which occasionally require emergency surgery. Moreover, failure of en bloc resection causes local recurrence. However, studies on the predictors of such difficulties during ESD are limited. Hence, we evaluated the predictors associated with the difficulty of ESD for esophageal neoplasia including failure of en bloc resection or perforation.

methodsData of 549 consecutive patients who were treated with ESD between May 2004 and March 2016 at a single institution were retrospectively studied. Exclusion criteria were the presence of metachronous esophageal neoplasia or missing data. The primary outcome was determining the predictors associated with the difficulty of ESD for esophageal neoplasia including failure of en bloc resection or perforation.

resultsAltogether, 543 patients with 736 lesions were evaluated. Failure of en bloc resection occurred in 6 patients (1.1%) with 6 lesions, and perforation occurred in 11 patients (2.0%) with 11 lesions (1.5%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that large lesion diameter (odds ratio [OR] 1.49; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.21-1.84; p < 0.001) and previous chemoradiotherapy (OR 5.24; 95% CI 1.52-18.06; p = 0.009) were independent predictive factors.

conclusionsLarger lesions and previous chemoradiotherapy for esophageal cancer increased the risk for failure of en bloc resection or perforation in patients who underwent esophageal ESD.
