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 efficacy of endoscopic resection in patients with rectal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) which are less than 20 mm in diameter remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and outcomes of different types of endoscopic resection in patients with NETs.

methodsWe performed a retrospective analysis and follow-up on 98 patients who underwent endoscopic resection for rectal NETs between August 2010 and October 2019 at Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, China. The lesions were preoperatively classified according to their endoscopic morphology and measured by endoscopic ultrasound. Patients were divided into modified endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) groups depending on the endoscopic treatment they received. The

resultsThe average diameter of the 98 NETs was 6.29±2.90 mm (range, 2-15 mm). The

conclusionsModified EMR and ESD are safe and effective endoscopic approaches for the resection of rectal NETs ≤15 mm in diameter. Endoscopic resection requires a comprehensive preoperative evaluation of risk factors including the depth of tumor invasion and tumor diameter.
