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

Gastric cancer remains a significant health burden worldwide. Most of these malignancies are diagnosed at an advanced stage and are associated with a grim prognosis. Complete removal of macroscopic and microscopic tumor masses along with regional lymphnodes (R0 surgical resection) represents the treatment of choice in localized, nonmetastatic gastric cancer. Chemotherapy, either alone as a perioperative treatment, or in combination with radiation therapy in an adjuvant setting, improves the clinical outcome for patients with resectable tumors. In patients suffering from metastatic disease, chemotherapy and the so-called targeted therapies play a major role in improving survival and quality of life compared with best supportive care. The emergence of new drugs as well as new administration schedules allow physicians to obtain an objective response of up to 60% and, since the utilization of targeted therapies, overall survival has reached 14 months. In order to situate the standard of care and the latest developments in gastric malignancies better, the pertinent English literature, including major Phase III randomized studies and meta-analyses, has been reviewed.
