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 tumors account for the majority of the mesenchymal neoplasms of the gastric antrum, but other entities should also be considered. We present the case of a 70-year-old man with an ulcerated well-circumscribed polypoid submucosal mass in the gastric antrum which was proven to be a glomus tumor. CT showed progressive contrast enhancement. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a high T2 signal intensity and heterogeneous arterial contrast enhancement which became more homogeneous in later phases. We also present the case of a 50-year-old woman with a large polypoid mass occupying half the circumference of the distal gastric antrum that was proven to be a plexiform fibromyxoma. Contrast-enhanced CT and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a pattern of progressive and heterogeneous enhancement. Although gastrointestinal stromal tumors are the most frequent gastric mesenchymal neoplasms, other rare mesenchymal tumors such as glomus tumor and plexiform fibromyxoma may arise in the gastric antrum.
