A Rare Subepithelial Lesion of the Proximal Colon Evaluated Using Miniprobe Endoscopic Ultrasonography: A Case Report.

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
Preoperative diagnosis of submucosal lesions in the colon can be challenging. Total colonoscopy comprising miniprobe endoscopic ultrasonography (mEUS) revealed a 5-mm submucosal lesion in the transverse colon as a hypoechoic area primarily within the submucosa in our patient. However, a definitive diagnosis could not be made after evaluating the biopsy results. Based on the mEUS findings, adhesion to the muscularis was localized; therefore, endoscopic submucosal dissection was performed. A postoperative pathology examination revealed a parasite-like structure at the center of the necrotic tissue that was diagnosed as a colorectal-type necrotic nodule. Diagnostic EUS should be considered for such cases, and mEUS is useful for assessing the safety of specimen collection. This technique is especially valuable for diagnosing colorectal submucosal lesions in the proximal colon, where other diagnostic modalities are limited, and may contribute to safer endoscopic mucosal resection and endoscopic submucosal dissection.
