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 previous studies demonstrated aggressive clinicopathologic features of papillary early gastric cancer (EGC). This raised concerns about the appropriateness of current Japanese guidelines that recommend the same endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) criteria for papillary EGC as for well-differentiated (WD) or moderately differentiated (MD) EGCs.

methodsThis study included 4140 patients who underwent ESD for differentiated-type EGC (87 papillary EGCs and 4259 WD or MD EGCs). The clinicopathologic characteristics and short- and long-term outcomes of ESD for papillary EGC were reviewed and compared with those for WD or MD EGC.

resultsPapillary EGCs were larger, and had higher lymphovascular and submucosal invasion rates than WD or MD EGCs. Lateral resection margin involvement and histological heterogeneity were found more frequently in papillary EGC than in WD or MD EGC. En bloc with R0 resection and curative resection rates of papillary EGC were 85.1 and 49.4%, respectively, and both were significantly lower than those of WD or MD EGC (93.0 and 82.2%). In mucosal cancers, curative resection rates of papillary EGC and WD or MD EGC were 72.5 and 93.7%, respectively. Among patients undergoing curative ESD for papillary EGC, no extra-gastric recurrences occurred during median 58 months of follow-up. Metachronous recurrence occurred in 5.2% of cases.

conclusionsGiven the favorable long-term outcomes after curative resection, ESD might be indicated for papillary EGC according to the current Japanese guidelines. As papillary EGC has considerable lymphovascular and submucosal invasion rates, careful histological examination is required to accurately determine whether curative ESD is achieved.
