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 a standard therapeutic technique for superficial esophageal neoplasms (SENs). However, esophageal refractory stricture is a serious adverse event secondary to extensive ESD (≥ 3/4 of the luminal circumference). This retrospective study aimed to investigate the risk factors for refractory postoperative stricture after extensive ESD.

methodsThe data of patients who underwent esophageal ESD at the Endoscopy Center of Changhai Hospital were reviewed between January 2011 and September 2019. Risk factors for postoperative refractory stricture [≥ 6 sessions of endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD)] after extensive ESD were then identified using univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis.

resultsA total of 69 SENs in 67 patients treated by extensive ESD were enrolled in this study. The refractory stricture incidence was 62% (43/69). Significant differences between non-refractory stricture group and refractory stricture group were observed in depth of infiltration (m1or m2/m3 or sm1:20/6 vs. 17/26, P = 0.003), longitudinal resection length (< 50 mm/ ≥ 50 mm:19/7 vs. 10/33, P < 0.001), circumferential range (3/4~ < 1/1:20/6 vs. 19/24, P = 0.008), muscular injury (NO/YES:18/8 vs. 19/24, P = 0.043), and clip number (≤ 5/ > 5:15/11 vs. 12/31, P = 0.014). Multivariate analysis revealed that longitudinal resection length ≥ 50 mm (odds ratio [OR] 11.099, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.620-47.019), depth of infiltration above m2 (OR 5.716, 95%CI 1.324-24.672) and muscular injury happened (OR 4.431, 95%CI 1.052-18.659) were independent risk factors for refractory stricture. In addition, the EBD sessions for treatment of refractory stricture was related to longitudinal resection length (relation coefficient γ = 0.528; P  <0.05).

conclusionsThe longitudinal resection length, depth of tumor infiltration and muscular injury are the reliable risk factors for esophageal refractory stricture after extensive ESD.
