Endoscopic full-thickness resection: A definitive solution for local complete resection of small rectal neuroendocrine neoplasms.
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2025. 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
backgroundRecently, several endoscopic techniques have been used to improve the R0 resection rate of rectal neuroendocrine neoplasms (R-NENs). However, none of these methods can achieve 100% complete resection (CR), particularly in the vertical direction. Endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR) has proven to be an effective method for the treatment of submucosal tumors but is seldom utilized in the eradication of R-NENs.
aimTo review cases of R-NENs removed using EFTR and to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this technique.
methodsThis retrospective cohort study enrolled 160 patients with pathologically confirmed R-NENs, including 132 who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and 28 who underwent EFTR. Lesions were categorized as < 1 cm, 1-2 cm, and > 2 cm in size. CR rate,
resultsEFTR achieved 100% CR rates for lesions < 1 cm and 1-2 cm, compared with 67.0% and 50.0%, respectively, in the ESD group.
conclusionEFTR has shown superior performance in the resection of small R-NENs compared with that of ESD.
