Transanal endoscopic local resection versus radical excision in the treatment of massive rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors: striving for therapeutic advantages.

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
Objectives: To compare the therapeutic advantages of transanal endoscopic local resection (taLR) and transabdominal radical resection (tbRR) in the treatment of massive gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). Design: Single-center retrospective study. Methods: From October 2012 to October 2022, the clinical, surgical, pathological, and prognostic data of patients with rectal GIST who underwent surgery were retrospectively collected. The patients were divided into the taLR group and the tbRR group according to the surgical methods, and the research indicators were compared. Results: Thirty-five patients with rectal GIST larger than 5 cm were enrolled, including 17 cases in the taLR group and 18 cases in the tbRR group. The taLR group showed shorter intraoperative time ( Conclusion: In conclusion, there were no significant differences in survival between taLR and laparoscopic radical resection for massive rectal GIST. Moreover, compared with transabdominal radical excision technique, the transanal endoscopy surgery provides a new method of anal preservation, thereby improving the patient's quality of life.
