Risk factors for stage underestimation in patients with clinical T1N0 gastric cancer.
Article in Surgery today, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
purposeLimited gastrectomy has been generally performed in clinical T1N0 gastric cancer. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for stage underestimation in clinical T1N0 gastric cancer.
methodsThis study reviewed the medical records of 566 patients who underwent gastrectomy for clinical T1N0 gastric cancer.
resultsThe tumor stage was underestimated in 122 (21.6%) patients. The relapse-free survival rate was significantly lower in the patients with pathological stage II (P = 0.021) and III (P < 0.001) disease than in those with pathological stage IA disease. In the multivariate analysis, a location in the upper third of the stomach, tumor size of ≥ 30 mm, undifferentiated adenocarcinoma and clinical tumor depth of SM were identified as independent risk factors for pathological stages II and III. The rate of pathological stages II and III was 0% in the patients with no risk factors, 3% in those with 1 risk factor, 10.5% in those with 2 risk factors, 19.8% in those with 3 risk factors and 50% in those with 4 risk factors.
conclusionsLocation, tumor size, undifferentiated adenocarcinoma and clinical tumor depth were independent risk factors for pathological stages II and III in clinical T1N0 gastric cancer.
