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

backgroundSuperficially invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SISCC) and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) involving the anal canal are rare, and their surgical management involves local excision. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has recently emerged as a promising treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of ESD for SISCC and HSIL in the anal canal.

methodsAll patients diagnosed with SISCC or HSIL in the anal canal who underwent ESD between November 2018 and May 2023 were included. Patient age, sex, pathology, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) status, human papillomavirus (HPV) status, T stage, en bloc rate, and R0 resection rate were analyzed.

resultsTen patients, including two men and eight women, with a median age of 61 (51-68) years were enrolled. All patients were HIV-negative, but five (50%) were HPV-positive. Pathological examination showed tumor stage of two patients as T2, one as T0 of SISCC, and seven as Tis of HSIL. The median specimen and tumor sizes were 24 (6-65) mm and 18 (6-55) mm, respectively. The en bloc and R0 resection rates were 100% and 80%, respectively. No severe complications occurred and no recurrence was observed at the follow-up (median follow-up period, 9 (1-35) months).

conclusionsESD is a reliable and minimally invasive procedure that enables more individualized treatment options for specific groups. As we were limited by the length of the observation period, the long-term performance of ESD for SISCC and HSIL involving the anal canal requires further investigation.
