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

backgroundGastric neuroendocrine neoplasia has been classified as neuroendocrine tumor (NET), a less-malignant type, and neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC), a more-malignant type. We investigated phenotypic expression profiles to clarify the differences between NET and NEC in terms of histopathology and carcinogenesis.

methodsWe assayed 86 cases of gastric neuroendocrine neoplasms (NET G1, n = 25; NET G2, n = 9; NEC, n = 52), using six exocrine markers (MUC5AC, human gastric mucin, MUC6, M-GGMC-1, MUC2, and CDX2).

resultsNEC frequently coexisted with adenocarcinomatous components (75 %; 39 of 52) and the majority (71.8 %; 28 of 39) showed intraglandular endocrine cell hyperplasia, although no cases of NET showed adenocarcinomatous components. Mucin phenotype significantly differed between NET and NEC; none of NET cases expressed any exocrine markers other than CDX2, although the majority of NEC (86.5 %; 45 of 52) expressed at least one or more exocrine markers with various positive rates for each marker (range, 8.2-74.0 %). Each NEC component showed only the phenotype expressed in the adenocarcinomatous component in the same tumor. Furthermore, double immunohistochemistry revealed dual expression of CDX2 and chromogranin A in half the NEC cases (23 of 46).

conclusionsThese data suggest that gastric NETs (G1 and G2) and NECs have different processes of carcinogenesis, and gastric NECs may be generated from preceding adenocarcinomas.
