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

backgroundThe clinical effect of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the treatment of early esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (EESCC) is widely recognized. However, the long-term treatment outcome of simultaneous ESD for multiple EESCC currently remained unknown. Hence, this study was aimed at further evaluating the long-term outcome of simultaneous ESD for synchronous multiple EESCC by comparing with ESD for single EESCC.

methodsConsecutive patients who underwent ESD for EESCC from June 2008 to June 2018 were included. Propensity score-matched analysis was used to compensate for the differences in age, sex, tumor location, tumor size, and tumor invasion depth between simultaneous and single ESD groups. Treatment outcomes including en bloc resection rate, curative resection rate, complication rate, and long-term outcomes including overall survival (OS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), metachronous recurrence were compared between the 2 groups after matching.

resultsThe propensity score-matched analysis included 332 lesions (166 patients) and 332 lesions (332 patients) in simultaneous and single ESD groups, respectively. Among all the outcomes, en bloc resection, curative resection, 5-year OS, and 5-year RFS rates were comparable. Complications were more common in the simultaneous ESD group (15.06% vs. 9.64%, P = 0.073). The 5-year metachronous recurrence rates were significantly high in the simultaneous ESD groups (24.28% vs. 6.99%).

conclusionsSimultaneous ESD is an effective and safe methodology for synchronous multiple EESCC; it also reduces hospital stay and medical expenses. The risk of metachronous recurrence is higher for patients with synchronous multiple EESCC; thus, more intensive strategies are required.
