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

backgroundDespite growing evidence on endoscopic full thickness resection (EFTR), data on segment-specific outcomes in real-world patients remain limited.

aimTo investigate segment-specific outcomes of EFTR using a full-thickness resection device (FTRD) for neoplastic colorectal lesions.

methodsIn this multicenter, retrospective study, EFTR was conducted in unselected real-world patients referred to participating German centers after colonoscopy confirmed EFTR eligibility. The primary outcome was histologically complete resection (R0) of the lesion, including segment-specific outcomes and adverse events (AE). Additional efficacy and safety parameters were investigated by colonic topography for up to 30 days.

resultsThe analysis included 102 patients (64 males, 38 females) with a median age of 70 years. EFTR

conclusionEFTR is efficacious for neoplastic colorectal lesions, though R0 rates vary by location. This may impact patient education, selection of the operator, and consideration of laparoscopy surgery.
