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

Gastric mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinomas (MANECs) are rare malignant tumors. This study aimed to investigate the clinicopathological features, diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment outcome in gastric MANECs patients. Clinicopathological data and the archived slides of 40 cases of MANEC patients were retrospectively reviewed. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining was performed to detect expression of synaptophysin (Syn), chromogranin A (CgA), CD56, CKpan, CK7, CK8/18, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), CK5/6, P40 and Ki-67. Hematoxylin and eosin staining demonstrated exocrine and neuroendocrine components, each accounting for at least 30% of the whole lesion. Exocrine components diffusely expressed epithelial markers CKpan, CK7, CK8/18, and CEA and endocrine components widely expressed at least one of the markers Syn, CgA, and CD56. Ki-67 index and mitosis determined the endocrine component grade as G3. Thirty-three of 40 patients were successfully followed up for 3 to 105 months with median survival of 12 months. Survival analysis showed a significant difference in prognosis with regard to patient's age, disease stage, tumor relapse status, and distant metastasis status. In conclusion, patient's age, disease stage, tumor relapse status, and distant metastasis status are important contributors to poor prognosis. Old patients with advanced stage, recurrence, or metastasis to the liver, pancreas or other distant organs show a poor prognosis.
