Is endoscopic treatment a useful therapeutic option for esophageal gastrointestinal stromal tumors?
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal endoscopy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Decisions regarding the management of patients with esophageal gastrointestinal tumors (EGISTs) are very challenging, as there are still no clear guidelines on the treatment of these tumors due to their rarity. Surgery remains the standard treatment, but it is known that surgical procedures performed on the esophagus are related to a high risk of serious postoperative complications and impaired quality of life. Endoscopic resection is both safe and effective for patients with low-risk EGISTs. This article presents the current therapeutic options in patients with EGISTs, including both the endoscopic and surgical approach, and discusses the results, strengths and limitations of the recent article by Xu
