Significance of Primary Malignant Tumors on the Outcome of Patients With Resected Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). 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
aimThis study aimed to clarify the significance of primary malignant tumors for the outcome of resected gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). PATIENTS AND
methodsThe medical history, pathological findings and prognosis of 66 patients with GISTs resected at our institute between January 2003 and December 2018 were investigated retrospectively and compared statistically.
resultsAmong 66 patients with GISTs, 24 (36%) had concomitant malignant tumors. In an average study period of 57 months, one patient died from GIST, seven from other malignant tumors, and one from another disease. Only coexistence of GIST and other malignant tumors was recognized as a prognostic factor. Increasing age was significantly correlated with other malignant tumor in combination with GIST. When comparing patients with GIST alone and GIST with other malignant tumors, the latter showed significantly poorer prognosis.
conclusionCoexistence of other malignant tumors was commonly observed in patients with GIST, and was associated with poorer prognosis. This association should be carefully considered and monitored in patients with GISTs.
