Clinical application of early gastric carcinoma with lymphoid stroma based on lymph node metastasis status.
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 18 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
backgroundGastric carcinoma with lymphoid stroma (GCLS) is characterized by undifferentiated carcinoma mixed with prominent lymphoid infiltration. GCLS has unique clinicopathological features and a better prognosis compared to other types of gastric cancer. We analyzed the clinicopathological features of early GCLS in relation to lymph node metastasis (LNM).
methodsWe performed a retrospective analysis of 241 patients diagnosed with GCLS confined to the mucosa or the submucosa between March 1998 and December 2015. Their data were compared with those from 1219 patients who underwent resection for differentiated early gastric cancer (EGC).
resultsOf the 241 patients analyzed, 33 (13.7%) had intramucosal cancers and 208 (86.3%) had cancers that penetrated the submucosa. Compared to differentiated EGC, early GCLS was more prevalent in younger individuals and in men, tended to be proximally located, was highly associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection (89.2%), and had a lower risk of LNM. The 5-year disease-specific survival rate of patients with early GCLS was 98.3% but depended significantly on LNM status (p < 0.001) and EBV infection status (p = 0.039). The risk of LNM from mucosal GCLS and submucosal GCLS was 0% [95% confidence interval (CI) 0-9.1] and 10% (95% CI 6.8-15.2), respectively. On multivariate analysis, LNM was found to be associated with tumor size (p = 0.022) and lymphovascular invasion (p = 0.002) in addition to tumor depth.
conclusionsEarly GCLS has distinct clinicopathological features depending on age, sex, tumor location, EBV infection status, and LNM status. Tailored therapies, including endoscopic treatment, are needed based on the distinct clinicopathological features of early GCLS.
