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

backgroundLymphatic involvement may sometimes be detected in differentiated-type intramucosal cancer resected endoscopically during routine examination, but its incidence and clinical significance remain unknown.

methodsWe examined 300 endoscopically resected lesions obtained from 238 patients diagnosed with differentiated-type intramucosal gastric cancer. All sections were subjected to D2-40 monoclonal-based immunohistochemistry.

resultsThe incidence of lymphatic involvement in differentiated-type intramucosal cancer was 2.0% (6/300). An incidence of 1.8% (5/279) was determined in lesions that were ≤ 3 cm in size and 2.2% (6/276) in those without an ulcer or ulcer scar. Of the six lesions presenting lymphatic involvement, three were determined to be histologically mixed with a predominance of differentiated type, while the other three lesions were pure differentiated type.

conclusionsWe determined that the incidence of lymphatic involvement in differentiated-type intramucosal cancer was 2.0%. To clarify the clinical significance of such lymphatic involvement, it is necessary to detect it with this incidence in mind and to gather and follow up the clinical courses of such cases.
