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

backgroundSurveillance strategies for small grade 1 rectal neuroendocrine tumors (G1 rNETs) after incomplete endoscopic resection (ER) remain controversial. We evaluated the long-term outcomes of patients with G1 rNET ≤1 cm after ER who did and did not undergo complete resection.

methodsWe retrospectively evaluated 441 patients with G1 rNETs measuring ≤1 cm after ER between 2011 and 2022. Patients were divided into complete and incomplete resection groups according to histopathological evaluation. Logistic regression analysis identified the risk factors for incomplete resection after ER.

resultsThe mean follow-up intervals were 38.6 and 45.7 months in all patients and the incomplete resection group, respectively. No recurrences were observed during the follow-up period. The mean lesion size was 5.5 mm and the complete resection rate was 80.5% (n=355). In the logistic regression analysis, lesion size 5.1 to 10 mm (odds ratio [OR], 2.3; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.245-4.203; p=0.008), multiple lesions (OR, 8.3; 95% CI, 1.247-54.774; p=0.029), and retroflexion view during the procedure (OR, 4.0; 95% CI, 1.668-9.615; p=0.002) were independent risk factors for incomplete resection.

conclusionsThe prognosis of G1 rNET ≤1 cm after ER was very good, regardless of the histopathological results.
