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

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are potentially malignancies that can occur anywhere in the digestive tract. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) such as imatinib have proven effective since the discovery of KIT and PDGFRA. The current version of NCNN, ESMO and EURACAN guidelines recognized that the three main prognostic factors are the mitotic rate, tumor size and tumor site. In addition, tumor rupture is also recognized as an independent risk factor. However, recent evidence shows that various types of gene mutations are associated with prognosis, and influencing factors such as gastrointestinal bleeding and high Ki67 index have been associated with poor prognosis. It shows that the current risk classification is still insufficient and controversial. With the emergence of more and more lack mutation in KIT/PDGFRA GISTs (KIT/PDGFRA wild-type GISTs) or drug resistance genes, primary and secondary drug resistance problems are caused, which makes the treatment of late or metastatic GIST face challenges. Therefore, this article will review the clinicopathological characteristics of GIST, the special molecular subtypes and other factors that may affect prognosis. We will also explore reliable prognostic markers for better postoperative management and improve the prognosis of patients with GIST.
