Early gastric cancer with multiple submucosal heterotopic gastric gland: A case report.
Article in Molecular and clinical oncology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
A case of early gastric cancer involving multiple submucosal gastric glands that was treated by distal gastrectomy was described in the present case report. An 85-year-old man was referred to our hospital for the treatment of gastric cancer. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed an irregular, nodular, elevated lesion on the posterior wall of the middle third of the stomach, and biopsy specimens indicated well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma. Submucosal tumor (SMT)-like lesions were detected in the area adjacent to the nodular lesion, in the anterior wall side of the middle third of the stomach. Abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed cystic lesions in the middle part of the stomach, and no mass lesions in the liver. The patient underwent distal gastrectomy with regional lymphadenectomy. Macroscopic examination of the resected specimen showed an SMT-like lesion measuring 2.8×2.6 cm in contact with a superficial, depressed lesion measuring 1.7×0.9 mm in the middle third of the stomach, and another SMT-like lesion measuring 1.5×1.4 cm in diameter, which was also in the middle third of the stomach. The pathological diagnosis was well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma invading the gastric submucosal layer without lymph node metastasis, but with nearby submucosal heterotopic gastric gland (SHGG) detected. Following surgery, the patient remained symptom-free without evidence of recurrence for 3 months. The finding of SHGG remains a rare entity, and further studies are warranted to clarify the association between these submucosal lesions and the development of cancer.
