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

We report a case of a 69-year-old man with metastatic cutaneous duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumor, which led to find multiple metastases on orbital muscle and scalp. The patient presented with a rapidly growing chest nodule with mild tenderness. He underwent surgical resection for duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumor and had been treated with imatinib for three years. Histopathological examination of the chest nodule was consistent with gastrointestinal stromal tumor. A brain magnetic resonance imaging of follow work-up revealed multiple metastases at the left superior rectus muscle and occipital scalp. Under the diagnosis with imatinib-resistant duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumors, a second-line therapy with sunitinib was tried. After six weeks, his skin lesion was completely improved and other metastatic cancers showed a response of stable disease. This is the first reported case of a cutaneous metastasis from duodenal GIST. This report emphasizes the importance of a full-skin examination in patients with a medical history of gastrointestinal stromal tumor which leads to find multiple metastases.
