Retrospective analysis of the outcomes of endoscopic submucosal dissection for the diagnosis and treatment of subepithelial lesions in a center with high expertise.

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
backgroundUse of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for the diagnosis and treatment of subepithelial lesions (SELs) is limited in the West, and the best approach for these lesions is still debated. In this study we describe our experience regarding the usefulness, safety and outcomes of ESD for SELs.
methodWe performed a retrospective analysis of ESD in the diagnosis and treatment of SELs between November 2010 and February 2021.
resultsA total of 634 ESDs were reviewed. Fifty-five (9%) were performed in SELs, 6 in the esophagus, 34 in the stomach, and 15 in the rectum. ESD was technically successful in 53 lesions (96%). Most of them (82%) had previous endoscopic ultrasound evaluation, but only 20% had a histological diagnosis previous to the ESD. Neuroendocrine tumors, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, and granular cell tumors accounted for 38% of the procedures, with a 100% rate of
conclusionOur real-life experience showed that ESD can be an effective and safe diagnostic tool for undetermined SELs, as well as an effective treatment for neoplastic SELs with malignant potential.
