Difference of computed tomographic characteristic findings between gastric and intestinal gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
Article in Japanese journal of radiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
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
purposeWe aimed to compare the computed tomography (CT) imaging differences between gastric and intestinal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). MATERIALS AND
methodsThirty-eight patients with 38 gastric GISTs and 27 with 31 intestinal GISTs were enrolled. Tumors were classified as small (< 5 cm) or large (≥ 5 cm). Qualitative and quantitative CT imaging characteristics on non-contrast and contrast-enhanced CT were evaluated by two radiologists independently and statistically compared.
resultsEarly venous return and higher CT number of the draining vein in the arterial phase were more frequent in small-sized intestinal GISTs than in small-sized gastric GISTs (p < 0.001). Small-sized intestinal GISTs demonstrated a wash-out pattern, whereas small-sized gastric GISTs showed a plateau pattern. Contrast enhancement was higher in small-sized intestinal GISTs than in small-sized gastric GISTs (p < 0.001). CT number was inversely proportional to the diameter of intestinal GISTs in both arterial and venous phases but not to that of gastric GISTs.
conclusionStrong enhancement with wash-out pattern and early venous return are characteristic findings of small-sized intestinal GISTs. Radiologists should be aware that CT findings of GISTs have a wide spectrum and may differ according to size and site of origin.
