Potential for local resection with sentinel node basin dissection for early gastric cancer based on the distribution of primary sites.
Article in Gastric cancer : official journal of the International Gastric Cancer Association and the Japanese Gastric Cancer Association, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundBased on the sentinel node (SN) concept, function-preserving surgery with SN basin dissection (SNBD) can be performed for SN-negative early gastric cancers. Particularly, a resection area can be minimized when the SN basin and primary site are closely localized. The aim of this study was to compare probabilities of being candidates for local resection with SNBD based on tumor location among patients with early gastric cancer.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 358 patients who underwent surgery with SN mapping for gastric cancer in our institution from November 1999 to April 2014. The proportion of patients who had a localized single basin and the distributions of the SN basins and primary sites were investigated. Patients with single basin drainage excluding remote sentinel node basin were considered as candidates for local resection with SNBD.
resultsOf the 358 patients, 191 (53%) patients were considered eligible for local resection with SNBD. Patients with tumors located in the upper third of the stomach were more likely candidates for local resection than those with tumors in other locations (upper third, 68%; middle third, 50%; and lower third, 51%), whereas patients with tumors located in the anterior wall were less likely candidates than those with tumors other locations (anterior wall, 31%; posterior wall, 58%; greater curvature, 55%; and lesser curvature, 57%).
conclusionWe found that > 50% of the patients indicated for SN navigation surgery, particularly those with tumors in the upper third of the stomach, potentially could undergo partial resection with SNBD.
