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

backgroundChronic infection with

methodsUsing demographic, location, and disease staging information, extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results-Medicare gastric cancer database (1997-2010), we compared frequencies of gastric cancer-related conditions (e.g., peptic ulcer, gastric ulcer, gastritis) and screening (

resultsData included 47,994 incident gastric cancer cases with Medicare claims. The majority (48.0%) of Asian/Pacific Islanders (API) were foreign-born, compared with non-Hispanic whites (NHW), Hispanics, and blacks (with 64.4%, 33.9%, and 72.9% U.S.-born, respectively). For NHWs, the most frequently diagnosed gastric cancer site was the cardia (35.6%) compared with <15% (

conclusionsNoncardia gastric cancer, associated with IMPACT: This study sheds light on poor screening practices despite presence of gastric cancer-related conditions.
