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.

Abstract

Generally, the gold standard of radical surgery for gastrointestinal (GI) tumors is en bloc resection of primary lesions and their related tissues. For gastric cancer, the ideal surgical treatment should be D2 radical gastrectomy plus complete mesogastrium excision. Complete mesogastrium excision is rarely done or mentioned since little is known about the mesogastrium and its presence is still with controversy. Topographically, the "mesogastrium" refers to a peri-gastric structure composed of "fascia propria", enveloping lymph nodes, blood vessels and adipose tissues, which by connecting to the stomach, suspends from the posterior abdominal wall. In this study, by employing video laparoscopy, a number of proximal segments of dorsal mesogastrium were found being extensively scattered around the pancreas. The structure of the mesogastrium was further identified intraoperatively and then confirmed both grossly and histologically after the operation. Our results demonstrated the existence of mesogastrium (gastric mesentery) and its architecture. We suggest for the first time a "Table model" to describe the relationship between the stomach and gastric mesenteries enveloped by fascia propria, which might provide an improvement in the surgical methods for excision of gastric cancer.
