1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 importance of gastric cancer, considering its progressive course and high mortality is one of the reasons we pay attention to patients' survival and the significance of this study was to estimate survival and determine the effective factors on patients with gastric cancer.

methodsIn this cross-sectional study, all patients with gastric cancer who underwent surgery in Shahid Beheshti Hospital, Babol, northern Iran during 2006-2011 were enrolled. To get information, a checklist was prepared consisting gender, age, and other factors related to survival from the start of diagnosis to the end of study. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS Version 20, t-test, chi-square test and Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier.

resultsOne hundred seventy-five patients consisting 132(75.4%) males and 43(24.6%) females entered the study. Among the 146 patients who were followed up for 50 months, 25 (14.28%) cases survived and 121 (69.15%) cases died. Survival did not have a significant association with gender, age, family history, smoking, location and type of tumor, metastasis, involved lymph nodes and treatment. Tumor stage and type of surgery had a significant association with survival in Cox regression.

conclusionDiagnosis of cancer at the early stage and type of surgery increased survival rate.
