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

backgroundPyloric gland adenoma (PGA) is a recently described and rare tumor. Submucosal tumor (SMT)-like PGA is more difficult to diagnose and differentiate from other submucosal lesions. CASE SUMMARY: We present the case of a 69-year-old man with a 10 mm SMT-like elevated lesion with an opening in the upper part of the gastric body, referred to our hospital for further endoscopic treatment. Magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging, endoscopic ultrasonography, and complete endoscopic submucosal dissection were performed on the patient. Histopathological findings revealed tightly packed tubular glands lined with cuboidal or columnar cells that had round-to-oval nuclei containing occasional prominent nucleoli and an eosinophilic cytoplasm similar to that in non-neoplastic gastric pyloric glands. Additionally, immunohistochemical analysis showed positive staining for both mucin 5AC and mucin 6. Therefore, we arrived at the final diagnosis of gastric PGA. Although there was no apparent malignant component in this tumor, PGA has been considered a precancerous disease with a high risk of transformation into adenocarcinoma.

conclusionPGA should be considered when detecting gastric SMT-like lesions. Physicians and pathologists should focus on PGA due to its malignant potential.
