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

Mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma (MANEC) is a rare disease, which mostly occurs in the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas. Here we report a case of gastric MANEC with tri-lineage differentiation in which only the neuroendocrine component had metastasized to the liver. Liver and gastric masses were detected by abdominal computed tomography, and the preoperative relationship between liver and gastric masses was unknown. The histopathological analysis after operation confirmed the gastric mass to be MANEC, whereas the liver mass was actually the metastatic neuroendocrine component of the gastric MANEC. In the pathologic diagnosis, tri-lineage differentiation, including tubular adenocarcinoma, neuroendocrine carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma was observed in the gastric MANEC tissues. The mitotic and Ki-67 labeling indexes of the resected tumor tissue were high, and thus, the tumor was classified as a grade G3 neuroendocrine carcinoma, which has a poor prognosis. Multiple low-density masses were found in the right lobe of the liver 2.5 months after operation.
