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

backgroundThe coexistence of esophageal variceal bleeding and superficial esophageal cancer (SEC) is relatively rare in clinical practice. Moreover, there have been few reports of SEC overlying esophageal varices (EVs). Herein, we report our successful use of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), esophageal solitary venous dilatation (ESVD), and endoscopic injection sclerotherapy (EIS) to treat a 75-year-old man who was diagnosed with SEC coexisting with esophageal variceal bleeding. CASE SUMMARY: A 75-year-old man was admitted to the hospital due to black stool for 4 days. The patient had a history of liver cancer, cirrhosis, and portal hypertension. Endoscopic examination revealed esophageal and gastric varicose veins, as well as esophageal carcinoma

conclusionThe sequential treatment of ESVD, EIS, and ESD is an effective method for treating EVs with early esophageal cancer.
