Comparable long-term survival outcomes of endoscopic therapy versus surgical therapy for T1-2N0M0 duodenal neuroendocrine tumors.
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 2023. 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
BACKGROUND AND STUDY
aimsThe optimal treatment modality for T1-2N0M0 duodenal neuroendocrine tumors (DNETs) is still controversial. In this study, long-term survival outcomes were compared between the endoscopic therapy and surgical therapy for T1-2N0M0 DNETs using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. PATIENTS AND
methodsPatients with DNETs from the SEER database were selected from 2004 to 2015. We used the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test to compare long-term survival results between the endoscopic therapy and surgical therapy. An analysis of the multivariable Cox proportional hazards model was performed to identify risk factors for patient prognoses. The 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to balance baseline data.
resultsA total of 816 patients with DNETs were included, of which 578 patients (70.8%) received endoscopic therapy and 238 patients (29.2%) received surgical therapy. Before the PSM, there was no difference between the two groups of patients with DNETs on long-term survival [5-year OS (86.1% vs. 87.9%, P = 0.45), 10-year OS (72.5% vs. 72.3%, P = 0.45)]. After adjusting covariates, we found endoscopic therapy and surgical therapy groups had comparable risks of overall survival (HR 0.86, 95% CI 0.60-1.23, P = 0.409) and cancer-specific survival (HR 1.68, 95% CI 0.74-3.83, P = 0.214). In the post-PSM analysis, there was no discernible difference between the endoscopic therapy and surgical therapy group.
conclusionsOur study found that for T1-2N0M0 DNETs patients, whose long-term OS and CSS results were similar for the endoscopic and surgical therapy groups. For these patients, endoscopic resection might be an optimal therapy modality.
