Current management of liver metastases from gastric cancer: what is common practice? New challenge of EORTC and JCOG.
Article in Gastric cancer : official journal of the International Gastric Cancer Association and the Japanese Gastric Cancer Association, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 papers, 5 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
The role of multidisciplinary treatment including surgery for liver metastases from gastric cancer (LMGC) is controversial. Studies to answer this clinical question are increasing in number, but all published data thus far are based on retrospective analyses with limited sample sizes. Thus, the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Gastrointestinal Tract Cancer Group (GITCG) and the Japan Clinical Oncology Group (JCOG) Stomach Cancer Study Group (SCSG) initiated a collaboration to develop an optimal treatment strategy for LMGC. Before planning a prospective study, a questionnaire was sent out to the network members of both groups in June 2016 to clarify current common practice in each region. Sixty-seven sites from 17 countries in the EORTC network and 55 sites from Japan responded. According to the survey, for patients with resectable LMGC without extrahepatic metastases, preoperative chemotherapy followed by resection of both primary (if still in place) and liver lesions was the preferred option for both the synchronous and the metachronous setting. For patients with unresectable LMGC, most of the sites recommended chemotherapy only. In this article, the detailed results of this survey are reported, shedding light on current community practice, and a joint EORTC-JCOG strategy of investigation is delineated.
