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

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a type of lung cancer characterized by a rapid disease progression and poor prognosis. Its diagnosis is often accompanied by distant metastasis. A literature review revealed that metastases to the stomach from breast, lung and esophageal cancer are frequently reported. While SCLC is a common pathological subtype of lung cancer, literature on SCLC with gastric metastases is sporadic. The present study reviewed the literature using databases, including PubMed, WanFang Data and China National Knowledge Infrastructure, to analyze the clinicopathological features and outcome of patients with gastric metastases from SCLC. A total of 11 case reports and 6 retrospective studies comprising of 19 cases were compared and analyzed. In addition to the aforementioned studies, a case study describing a patient who survived for 10 months following a diagnosis of SCLC with gastric metastases is presented. The aim of the present study was to increase the understanding regarding the diagnosis and treatment of SCLC gastric metastasis.
