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

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is the most common submucosal tumor of the stomach. GISTs are often detected by esophagogastroduodenal endoscopy. We have previously reported on endoscopically invisible medium-sized exophytic type GISTs. We present here a case of small exophytic GIST detected by transabdominal ultrasonography (TUS) in which the natural history of the tumor could be traced retrospectively through incidental findings obtained during follow-up for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm by magnetic resonance of imaging or computed tomography over about 10 years. The tumor appeared 7 years before its detection, and the doubling time was calculated as 6.9 years. In conclusion, low-risk exophytic GIST was estimated to have taken at least about 7 years to reach a size detectable by TUS.
