Dome-type carcinoma of the rectum mimicking a submucosal tumor: a case report and literature review.
Article in Journal of minimally invasive surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Dome-type carcinoma (DC) has been recognized as a rare variant of adenocarcinoma, which arises in gut-associated lymphoid tissue. It has a specific morphologic feature of a dome-like protrusion associated with lymphoid tissue. We report a case of a DC of the rectum in an asymptomatic 58-year-old male. A 2-cm sized, well-demarcated, round mass masquerading as a submucosal tumor (SMT) was identified in the rectum and was resected by endoscopic submucosal dissection. The tumor was revealed as an adenocarcinoma with submucosal invasion of 3,700 µm, which consisted of dilated cystic glands and the lymphoid stroma with reactive germinal centers. On immunohistochemistry, the tumor cells revealed retained expression for mismatch repair proteins. Laparoscopic surgical resection was subsequently performed. DC is considered a distinctive subtype of colorectal adenocarcinoma with characteristic morphology and low-grade malignant potential. Careful detection of the overlying mucosal lesion is crucial to differentially diagnose DC from SMT.
