Endoscopic or Surgical Resection for Patients with 2-5cm Gastric Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors: A Single-Center 12-Year Experience from China.
Article in Cancer management and research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
purposeThe surgical or endoscopic resection is the current treatment modality for 2-5 cm gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). However, evidence is lacking as to which treatment modality is better. Our objective is to provide a new reference for the standardization of the treatment of 2-5 cm gastric GISTs. PATIENTS AND
methodsA retrospective study was conducted on 177 patients who underwent resection for 2-5cm gastric GISTs between January 2007 and July 2019 at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University. The cases were divided into surgical group (n=118) and endoscopic group (n=59). The clinical data, pathological and genetic characteristics, short- and long-term outcomes were compared.
resultsSymptoms showed more obvious in the surgical group including abdominal pain and bleeding. In the endoscopic group, tumor size was smaller (p<0.001), and risk classification was lower (p<0.001). Patients in the endoscopic group had shorter anal exhaust time (p<0.001) and lesser hospital cost (p<0.001). However, the incidence rate of complications (25.42 vs 4.20%; p<0.001) and reoperation (22.03 vs 0.00%; p<0.001) in the endoscopic group was relatively higher than these in the surgical group. There was no significant difference in recurrence-free survival or overall survival between two groups.
conclusionGastric GISTs of 2-5cm may be suitable to select laparoscopic surgery.
