Asymptomatic Esophageal Carcinosarcoma Diagnosed Based on Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection Results: A Case Report.
Article in JGH open : an open access journal of gastroenterology and hepatology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Esophageal carcinosarcoma is a rare type of esophageal cancer with a characteristic sausage shape that is often detected at an early stage; therefore, the depth of invasion is often submucosal. However, many cases of esophageal carcinosarcoma demonstrate lymphatic metastases, which require surgery. Case: We describe the case of a 46-year-old female patient who underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy that revealed a tumor shadow in the middle thoracic esophagus. The patient did not have symptoms such as dysphagia or chest pain. Subsequent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with ultrasound and endoscopic submucosal dissection revealed carcinoma and sarcoma components that allowed the diagnosis of esophageal carcinosarcoma. Lymph node metastases and distant metastases were not observed. Discussion: Tumor resection of the center and base of the protruding lesion with a wide margin allows an early and correct diagnosis of typical and atypical esophageal carcinosarcoma cases. Tumor resection with a wide margin can predict metastasis. Conclusions: This rare case was correctly diagnosed during an early and asymptomatic stage.
