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

backgroundRadical surgical excision is the mainstay of therapy of primary, nonmetastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) and margin status after surgery is a significant prognostic factor. METHODS AND

resultsThe aim of this paper is to review principles in primary GIST surgery, i.e. differences between R0, R1, and R2 resection, to describe how surgical margin status and tumor intraperitoneal rupture influence the patients' outcome, and how this may be effected by neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment in locally advanced tumors. A systematic search of literature published between 2000 and 2018 was performed regarding this topic.

conclusionCorrect interpretation of margin status after surgery can be affected by many factors during operation and preparation of tissue.
