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

Superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SESCC) is an esophageal squamous cell carcinoma confined to the mucosa or superficial submucosa. Recent Korean Guidelines recommend an endoscopic resection as the first-line treatment for SESCC without a distant or lymph node metastasis (LNM) after excluding those with an obvious submucosal invasion. Before endoscopic treatment of SESCC, Lugol chromoendoscopy or image-enhanced endoscopy is recommended to define the extent of the lesion, and endoscopic ultrasound is recommended to determine the T stage. The tumor size, macroscopic type of tumor, pathologic differentiation, depth of tumor, and lymphovascular invasion (LVI) are risk factors of LNM in SESCC. No additional treatment is necessary after an
