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

A 60-year-old male was referred to Nanjing Drum-Tower Hospital (Nanjing, Jiangsu, China) due to the presence of gastric carcinoma. A biopsy was performed under an electronic gastroscope and the pathological analysis resulted in the diagnosis of gastric small cell carcinoma (GSCC). The mass had invaded the liver and the pancreas according to an enhanced computed tomography scan, thus current surgical methods were considered to be of high risk and highly challenging. Following four cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with irinotecan (200 mg, days 1, 21, 41 and 61) and oxaliplatin (120 mg, days, 1, 21, 41 and 61) the patient underwent a D2 gastrectomy and an esophagojejunal Roux-en-Y anastomosis, followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. The patient experienced survival without progression in the 8-month follow-up. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of few cases of GSCC treated with the combination of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy.
