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
backgroundAlthough extragastric recurrence after endoscopic resection of early gastric cancer is rare, it is important because of its potentially fatal outcomes. We investigated the patterns of extragastric recurrence after endoscopic resection and evaluated the role of abdominal computed tomography in surveillance.
methodsBetween July 1994 and June 2014, 4915 patients underwent endoscopic resection of early gastric cancer. Because of follow-up periods of less than 6 months and consecutive surgery within 1 year, 810 patients were excluded. Thus, 4105 patients were retrospectively reviewed.
resultsThe median follow-up period was 37 months (interquartile range 20-59.6 months). The overall incidence of extragastric recurrence was 0.37% (n = 15). In patients who underwent curative resection, the incidence was 0.14% (n = 5). There were three recurrences in the absolute indication group, six in the expanded indication group, and six in the beyond expanded indication group. The median time to extragastric recurrence was 17 months (interquartile range 16.5-43.2 months). Of the 15 extragastric recurrences, 11 were in the regional lymph nodes and 4 were in the liver, adrenal gland, and peritoneum. Sixty percent (9/15) of the extragastric recurrences occurred without intragastric lesions. Eleven recurrences were detected by abdominal computed tomography, and eight patients underwent curative surgery.
conclusionsAfter endoscopic resection of early gastric cancer, regional lymph node recurrence is the predominant extragastric recurrence pattern, which can be detected via abdominal computed tomography and cured by rescue surgery. Abdominal computed tomography should be considered as a surveillance method, especially in patients with an expanded indication.
