A case of endoscopic submucosal dissection for neuroendocrine carcinoma of the esophagus with invasion to the muscularis mucosae.

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
Neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) of the esophagus at early-stage is very rare due to its rapidly progression. Here, we reported a case of esophageal NEC at early stage treated with endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). A 63-year-old man underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) and a lesion was detected in the thoracic esophagus. The preoperative diagnosis was squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) based on magnifying endoscopy; however, the pathological diagnosis was NEC with an invasion of muscularis mucosa accompanied by lymphovascular invasion. Adjuvant chemoradiotherapy was recommended after ESD; however, the patient did not accept additional treatments. The patient was alive with no recurrence 15 months after ESD. In this case, there were three malignant components among SCC, NEC, and adenocarcinoma with transitional areas among each component in the superficial part of the lesion.
