Safety and Feasibility of a Patient-Centered Same-Day Polypectomy Referral System: A Single-Center Experience.

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
backgroundColon polypectomy is often performed on a separate day following screening colonoscopy, necessitating repeat bowel preparation.
aimsWe implemented a novel same-day polypectomy referral system to improve patient convenience and evaluated its clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction compared with conventional elective polypectomy.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed a prospectively maintained database of patients referred for colon polypectomy at a tertiary center between July and December 2017. Polyp characteristics, bowel preparation quality, procedural outcomes, and complications were compared. Patient satisfaction was assessed using a questionnaire.
resultsA total of 112 patients were included (same-day polypectomy, n = 57; elective polypectomy, n = 55). The number and location of resected polyps were comparable between groups. Polyps in the same-day group were significantly smaller (6.3 ± 3.2 mm vs. 10.9 ± 8.7 mm, P < 0.001), and bowel preparation quality was lower (mean BBPS 6.8 ± 1.6 vs. 8.4 ± 1.0, P < 0.001). No procedure-related complications occurred in either group. Among respondents, 95% reported satisfaction with the same-day system, most commonly due to avoidance of repeat bowel preparation (71.8%).
conclusionThe same-day polypectomy referral pathway appeared feasible in carefully selected patients with non-complex colorectal polyps and was associated with high satisfaction among questionnaire respondents. Lower bowel preparation quality in the same-day group should be considered when interpreting the findings, and the modest sample size precludes definitive conclusions regarding safety.
