Feasibility of endoscopic resection and impact of endoscopic ultrasound-based surveillance on colorectal subepithelial 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 1 paper.
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
backgroundOwing to the rising number of screening endoscopies and instrumental advances in endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), colorectal subepithelial tumors (SETs) are being increasingly detected. We aimed to determine the feasibility of endoscopic resection (ER) and the impact of EUS-based surveillance on colorectal SETs.
methodsThe medical records of 984 patients with incidentally detected colorectal SETs between 2010 and 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Overall, 577 colorectal SETs underwent ER, and 71 colorectal SETs underwent serial colonoscopy for > 12 months.
resultsThe mean tumor size (± standard deviation) of 577 colorectal SETs for which ER was performed was 7.0 ± 5.7 (median, 55; range, 1-50) mm; 475 tumors were located in the rectum and 102, in the colon. En bloc resection was achieved in 560/577 treated lesions (97.1%), and complete resection was achieved in 516/577 (89.4%). ER-related adverse events occurred in 15/577 (2.6%) patients. SETs originating from the muscularis propria showed a higher risk of ER-related adverse events and perforation than SETs arising from the mucosal or submucosal layer (odds ratio [OR] 19.786, 95% confidence interval [CI] 4.556-85.919; P = 0.002 and OR 141.250, 95% CI 11.596-1720.492; P = 0.046, respectively). Seventy-one patients were followed up after EUS without any treatment for > 12 months, during which three showed progression; eight, regression; and sixty, no changes.
conclusionsER for colorectal SETs showed excellent efficacy and safety. Additionally, colorectal SETs without high-risk features in surveillance with colonoscopy showed an excellent prognosis.
