A case of a stomach gastrointestinal stromal tumor with extremely predominant cystic formation.
Article in Clinical journal of gastroenterology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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 79-year-old male was referred to the hospital with a history of abdominal discomfort. Abdominal computed tomography revealed a cystic tumor with irregular wall thickness, approximately 50 mm in diameter, along the lesser curvature of the gastric body. Magnetic resonance imaging visualized the mass as signal-hyperintense on T2-weighted imaging. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed a submucosal tumor with normal mucosa. Surgery was performed and the 60 × 50 × 50 mm mass was resected. The resected tumor comprised cystic and solid regions; the cystic region was filled by light bloody serous fluid. On histological examination, a solid region of the resected tumor showed a spindle-cell appearance. The diagnosis was gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) with predominant cystic formation. GISTs are usually solitary tumors, but in this case the tumor demonstrated extremely predominant cystic formation. Lesions with a hemorrhage or necrosis may form large cystic spaces. GISTs may show extensive cystic changes in response to tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment; however, this patient had not undergone any such treatment before diagnosis. This represents an interesting case of a gastric GIST with predominant cystic formation occupying most of the tumor volume. Care should be taken to differentiate between GISTs and actual intra-abdominal cystic lesions.
