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

Video 1The mass was identified at the upper- to mid-esophagus, 25 cm from the central incisors. No varices were seen on further examination of the esophagus. A 4-mm injector force needle was used to create a large submucosal injection using BlueBoost lifting agent proximal to the mass. A longitudinal mucosal incision was then made using the hybrid T-type electrocautery knife, 20 cm from the central incisors.The cutting current was the preset Endocut Q mode, and the coagulation setting was spray coag mode, effect 2 and 40 W.Next, tunnel creation by submucosal dissection was performed with a focus on keeping the submucosal space as clean as possible. Carbon dioxide was used for insufflation to prevent pneumoperitoneum.A smooth-surfaced oval mass was identified originating from the muscularis propria layer. Dissection was extended 2 cm distally beyond the mass. Next, resection of the mass was performed. First, the mucosal surface of the mass was dissected. Dissection began at the distal portion, proceeded to the left and right lateral borders, and then continued toward the proximal portion. The mass was dissected away from the muscularis propria.We focused on freeing the mass, ensuring this esophageal mass was intact throughout dissection. The attached bands of muscularis propria at the distal portion were carefully resected completely.Water irrigation was used at this time to ensure better visualization for resection. The remaining attached bands of muscularis propria were resected, ensuring complete en bloc resection. Afterward, the mass was suctioned into the cap and carefully retrieved as shown, and then sent to pathology for processing.The entire defect bed was inspected post-resection, and no perforation or bleeding was identified.The mucosal defect was completely closed with through-the-scope hemostatic clips in a longitudinal fashion beginning with approximation of the defect at the distal portion.
