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

Oesophageal gastrointestinal stromal tumours are rare, anatomically challenging lesions with higher surgical morbidity than their gastric counterparts. Emerging endoscopic resection techniques such as endoscopic submucosal dissection and submucosal tunnelling endoscopic resection show much promise for the management of patients who are not fit for, or wish to avoid the morbidity of, major surgical resection. These techniques require careful patient selection and advanced technical skills. We build on the recent review of such techniques by Vogli
