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

introductionWe experienced an extremely rare case of gastric adenocarcinoma wrapped by leiomyoma. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 65-year-old man had an abnormality (filling defect) of the upper gastrointestinal series in his first medical checkup five years prior. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy detected a 10 mm submucosal tumor-like lesion in the greater curvature of the upper gastric remnant body. Despite repeated biopsy from the lesion, there was no sign of malignancy. A delle was observed on the top of the tumor at another visit five year after the first and a biopsy specimen revealed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. Therefore, laparoscopic gastrectomy was performed. Histological assessment revealed a 28 × 22 mm elevated lesion with a slight depression. Microscopically, papillary adenocarcinoma was observed at the submucosa with a solitary heterotopic gastric gland adjacent to the lesion. The final diagnosis was papillary adenocarcinoma arising from a solitary heterotopic gastric gland in the leiomyoma. No recurrence has occurred during a follow-up of two and a half years after surgery.

conclusionsThis is the first report of gastric adenocarcinoma arising from a submucosal tumor.
