Esophageal Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection in Older Patients Is Safe and Feasible: A Retrospective Single-Center Cohort Study in the United States.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 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
backgroundEndoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a well-established method for treating early esophageal carcinomas. However, data on the safety and efficacy of esophageal ESD in older patients in the United States are limited.
methodsThis retrospective study investigated the outcomes of esophageal ESD in patients aged ≥80 years and included those who underwent esophageal ESD between June 2018 and April 2023 at a single center in the United States. Patients were divided into two age groups for comparison: ≥80 and <80 years. Treatment outcomes and complications were evaluated and compared between these groups.
resultsA total of 53 cases of esophageal ESD for malignant neoplasms were included, with 12 patients in the ≥80 years age group. No significant differences were observed in the patients' background and characteristics, except for a prior history of interventions (
conclusionsEsophageal ESD may be a safe and feasible procedure for treating esophageal carcinomas in older patients.
