Peritoneal lavage examination as a prognostic tool in cases of gastric cancer.
Article in Archives of medical science : AMS, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
introductionPeritoneal tumor seeding is a common form of recurrence after gastric cancer surgery. The finding of free tumor cells and/or elevation of tumor markers in the peritoneal fluid could predict intraperitoneal tumor recurrence. The results of these examination can be used for indication of aggressive treatment modalities such as hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). MATERIAL AND
methodsWe have operated on 105 patients suffering from gastric cancer. The control group consisted of 12 patients without malignant disease. Peritoneal lavage fluid or ascites was collected immediately after laparotomy and examined by cytology and biochemistry (levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and Ca 19-9). Sensitivity, specificity, stage correlation and overall survival were observed.
resultsElevation of tumor markers or the finding of free intraperitoneal tumor cells predicts recurrence. The prognosis of these patients is same as in stage IV TNM classification with median survival time less than 1 year (
conclusionsThis study confirms the importance of peritoneal fluid examination for the prognosis. We cannot recommend routine use as an indicator for HIPEC due to low sensitivity, but the result of cytological examination is an independent factor for patient survival.
