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

backgroundEndoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a minimally invasive, safe, and efficient treatment technique for patients diagnosed with early esophageal cancer. However, postoperative disease recurrence remains an important clinical challenge because it negatively alters patient prognosis and quality of life. As such, identification of relevant risk factors for recurrence can help optimize postoperative management strategies.

aimTo assess factors that contribute to the risk for disease recurrence after ESD for early esophageal cancer.

methodsClinical data from 210 patients diagnosed with early stage esophageal cancer, who underwent ESD at the authors' center between March 2012 and March 2025, were retrospectively collected and analyzed. Patients were categorized into 2 groups according to postoperative disease recurrence: Recurrence (

resultsDuring the follow-up period, 30 patients experienced tumor recurrence, corresponding to a recurrence rate of 14.19%. Multivariate analysis revealed that poor differentiation was a significant potential cause of esophageal cancer recurrence [odds ratio (OR) = 1.782, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.154-2.196;

conclusionRecurrence of early esophageal cancer after ESD is largely influenced by the degree of differentiation, depth of lesion invasion, complete resection status of the tumor, and tumor diameter.
