Clinical Implication of the Width of Subserosal Invasion in T3N0 Gastric Cancer.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to clarify the impact of the horizontal width of tumor invasion into the subserosal layer on prognosis in patients with T3N0 gastric cancer. PATIENTS AND
methodsA total of 72 patients with T3N0 cancer were enrolled. Relapse-free survival of the subgroups classified according to width of subserosal invasion was compared to that of 34 patients with T4aN0 cancer.
resultsThe group with wide invasion (≥1.5 cm) had a significantly poorer prognosis than those with narrow invasion (<1.5 cm) (p=0.014). Multivariate analysis revealed the width of subserosal invasion to be an independent prognostic factor. There was no significant difference between the T3N0 group with wide invasion and the T4aN0 group in the prognosis and recurrent status.
conclusionThe malignant potential of T3N0 gastric cancer with wide subserosal invasion was found to be similar to that of T4aN0 cancer.
