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

A 69-year-old woman who had no symptoms was found to have an intraperitoneal tumor on abdominal ultrasonography in a medical checkup. Thereafter, she was referred to our hospital for a further detailed examination. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a thin-walled cystic tumor with a diameter of 8 cm and with a hypervascular solid masses in the cystic wall, along with intraperitoneal multiple nodules. The cystic tumor was contiguous with the stomach wall. For solid mass of cystic lesions, endoscopic ultrasound-fine needle aspiration was performed transgastrically with a 25-gauge Franseen needle. Pathologically, the cells in the tumor were spindle shaped with atypical nucleus and were positive for c-kit, CD34, and smooth muscle actin. The tumor was diagnosed as gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). With the diagnosis of gastric GIST with peritoneal dissemination, imatinib chemotherapy was initiated.
