Survival outcomes of elderly patients with pathological stages II and III gastric cancer following curative gastrectomy.
Article in Annals of gastroenterological surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
aimSurvival outcomes in elderly patients with pathological stages (pStages) II and III gastric cancer remain inadequately elucidated. We retrospectively analyzed outcomes of elderly and nonelderly patients who underwent curative gastrectomy for this cancer and considered clinical results of the Estimation of Physiologic Ability and Surgical Stress (E-PASS) scoring system for prediction.
methodsAmong 1041 patients who underwent gastrectomy for pStages II and III gastric cancer between 2008 and 2013 consecutively, 898 patients were enrolled. Of these, 158 patients (17.6%) were elderly and 740 patients (82.4%) were nonelderly.
resultsDisease-specific survival (DSS) in the elderly group with pStage III cancer was significantly worse than that in the same stage nonelderly group (
conclusionsCompared with nonelderly patients, different characteristics were observed in the survival outcomes of elderly patients between pStages II and III gastric cancer. The survival gap between OS and DSS of elderly patients was larger in pStage II cancer than in pStage III cancer. The E-PASS scoring system could be a relatively useful predictor in elderly patients.
