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

Subepithelial lesions are often detected incidentally in patients undergoing an endoscopy. They are common tumors of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract which can originate from different layers of the GI tract wall. These lesions can be further classified based on GI layer of origin and unique histochemical staining. While most are benign and asymptomatic, some of these lesions have malignant potential with distant metastases. However, current diagnostic modalities including endoscopy with biopsy or endoscopic ultrasound with fine needle aspiration are not always reliable. In addition, management of these lesions has historically involved surgical resection via open or laparoscopic approaches. In recent years, with advancement in endoscopic techniques and improvement in endoscopists' skills, less invasive procedures such as endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), endoscopic full thickness resection (EFTR) and submucosal tunneling endoscopic resection (STER) have been developed and now are being used by endoscopists worldwide. Upon reviewing the literature, multiple studies have shown the advantages of these endoscopic techniques when compared with surgical treatment. As a result, there has been a dramatic shift towards minimally invasive endoscopic procedures for the management of these subepithelial lesions. In this review article, we will discuss these endoscopic resection techniques in detail, their safety and efficacy, as well as comparison studies to other therapeutic modalities.
