The purpose of this letter was to explore how lesion size affects the pooled effect of traction-assisted endoscopic submucosal dissection on procedure time. Our meta-regression showed that lesion size negatively associated with the effect of traction-assisted endoscopic submucosal dissection on procedure time (estimate point = - 1.02; 95% confidence interval, from - 1.58 to - 0.46). We also confirmed this result in different statistical models including fixed effect regression and two mixed effects regression models.
这封信的目的是探讨病变大小如何影响牵引辅助内镜黏膜下剥离术对手术时间的 pooled 效应。我们的荟萃回归分析显示,病变大小与牵引辅助内镜黏膜下剥离术对手术时间的影响呈负相关(估计点=-1.02;95%置信区间,-1.58 至-0.46)。我们还在不同的统计模型中证实了这一结果,包括固定效应回归和两种混合效应回归模型。
