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

introductionAlthough carcinoid tumours are a rare gastrointestinal neoplasm with an incidence rate of 1-2.5 cases per 100 000 inhabitants, they are the most common neuroendocrine tumour of the stomach. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 70-year-old-man consulted for epigastric pain and dyspepsia symptoms. His past medical and surgical history included obesity (BMI: 53.9 kg/m DISCUSSION: Gastric carcinoid increased incidence among the obese population, although the causing mechanisms are not clear, yet it is likely that metabolic and hormonal effects of the obesity play a role. The resection may be performed either endoscopically when the lesions are small, or surgically according to the tumor type and size.

conclusionThe resective gastric bypass or gastrectomy with anastomosis by Roux- en- Y bypass may be considered as a treatment of choice for patients who after bariatric surgery were diagnosed with gastric carcinoid and weight regain.
