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.

Abstract

backgroundSurgery is the first choice for the treatment of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). With the development of new instruments and techniques, the popularity of laparoscopic resection of GISTs has increased rapidly. Previous studies on the advantages of laparoscopic resection over open surgery are generally limited by methodology or data capacity. This study evaluated the efficacy of laparoscopic resection and open surgery in gastric GISTs using the propensity score matching (PSM) method.

methodsBetween January 2005 and December 2017, 1027 patients were diagnosed with primary GIST at our institution. Among them, 548 patients were enrolled in this study. Standard demographic and clinicopathological data were collected from our database. Selection bias was eliminated using the PSM methods.

resultsAfter PSM, 256 cases involved in the comparison (128 laparoscopic (LAP) vs. 128 open surgery (OPEN)) were randomly matched (1:1) by age, sex, body mass index, hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, year of surgery, tumor location, tumor size, mitotic rate, and treatment with adjuvant tyrosine kinase inhibitors. The LAP group was superior to the OPEN group in blood loss (χ

conclusionsLaparoscopic resection for gastric GISTs is associated with improved surgical outcomes and postoperative courses and comparable oncological outcomes, regardless of favorable or unfavorable tumor location.
