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

rationalePrimary gastric inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is extremely rare. Only a few cases were reported in the domestic and foreign medical literature with corresponding imaging findings of this disease even more rarely reported. PATIENT CONCERNS: We present one case of a 52-year-old female patient with upper abdominal pain, acid reflux, and belching for 2 months. DIAGNOSES AND

interventionsElectron ultrasound gastroscopy (EUS) revealed elevation of gastric antrum mucosa. A whole abdominal and pelvic multi-slice spiral computed tomography (CT) detected a round nodule in the gastric antrum with considerably delayed enhancement, with initial suspicion of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTS). Then a laparoscopic assisted distal gastrectomy was performed. Finally, the postoperative pathology confirmed the diagnosis of primary gastric IMT. OUTCOMES: After 6 months of follow-up, the patient was still alive without any evidence of metastasis or recurrence. LESSONS: Familiarizing with the CT features of this rare tumor may raise radiologists' awareness of the disease and potentially could avoid misdiagnosis.
