Forest plot to compare en bloc resection rate, R0 resection rate and complication rate between endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection (ESTD) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) groups. a, Risk ratios (RR) with 95% CI for en bloc resection was 1.04 (95% CI: 0.95–1.14), Cochran Q test P = 0.42, I2 = 70%; b, For R0 resection, pooled RR was 1.01 (95% CI: 0.93–1.10), Cochran Q test P = 0.73, I2 = 48%; c, As for complications, pooled RR was 0.68 (95% CI: 0.46–1.01), Cochran Q test P = 0.05, I2 = 28%
