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

backgroundThe prognosis about duodenal GISTs is debatable. The purpose of this study is to compare the characteristics and the prognostic factors in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) located in the duodenum with those located in the small intestine.

methodsOne hundred-one patients with GIST located in the duodenum (n = 40), or small intestine (n = 61) underwent resection between 1996 and 2010. We analyzed clinicopathologic features, surgical outcomes, and prognostic factors.

resultsFive-year survival rate in patients with GIST located in the duodenum and small intestine were 66.6 and 80.8%, respectively (p = 0.018). After survival analysis, high mitotic count and tumor rupture were identified as independent adverse prognostic factors. Advanced T stage and absence of adjuvant imatinib treatment were adverse prognostic factors with marginal statistical significance. The rate of progressive disease was significantly higher in patients with duodenal GISTs (36.8%) than in those with small intestinal GIST (29.6%) (p = 0.024).

conclusionsThe clinicopathologic findings of duodenal GIST differ from those of small intestinal GIST. Patients with duodenal GIST have a worse prognosis than those with small intestinal GIST. Aggressive treatment including surgical resection should be considered for duodenal GIST, even if the risk is relatively low.
