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

Lymph node (LN) metastasis of gastric cancer (GC) is the strongest prognostic indicator for this disease; however, the majority of the LN metastasis profiles of GC remain unknown, which notably hinders the therapeutic efficacy in clinic. In the present study, an orthotopic model of human GC was established for investigation of time-dependent LN metastasis patterns in mice. Luciferase-expressing NCI-N87 human GC cells were injected into the subserosa of the gastric body, resulting in a tumor formation rate of 100%. LN metastasis at four different anatomical positions in the abdomen were characterized until week 10 after tumor cell injection using sensitive bioluminescence imaging and histopathological analyses. Skip LN metastases were observed at later stages (weeks 8-10) of the experiment. Metastases in other major organs, including liver, spleen and lung, were also examined. Characterization of this orthotopic GC model and metastasis patterns in LNs and major organs should aid in the preclinical GC research regarding the metastatic mechanism and drug development.
