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

aimThe aim of this study was to apply two types of statistical models to determine the factors that influence the mortality rate in patients with gastric cancer.

backgroundIn Iran, gastric cancer ranks the first and second most prevalent among men and women, respectively. It is the first cause of death in Iran in both gendersival.

methodsIn this retrospective study, data were obtained from 339 (216 male) patients diagnosed with gastric cancer in the city of Kerman (South-East of Iran) during 2001-2015. In this study, ordinary and Bayesian Lasso (least absolute shrinkage and selection operator) logistic regression models, with goodness-of-fit indices, were compared and the models' risk factors were also determined.

resultsThe mean age of the participants was 62.84 ±14.53 years, and 12.4% of them were younger than 45 years. Also, the mortality rate was 57.7%. Gender, morphology of the tumor, and time of diagnosis were found to be significant factors in the mortality of the patients in both models. This study found that the Bayesian Lasso model had better fitness.

conclusionThe high mortality rate of gastric cancer and its high prevalence at age below 45 years are alarming. Thus, great attention should be paid to prevention, early diagnosis, especially in females, and adenocarcinoma to improve the survival of patients with gastric cancer.
