Endoscopic findings of gastric mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma: A case report.

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
rationaleGastric mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma (gMANEC) is a rare malignant tumor. Most gMANECs are diagnosed at an advanced stage and have a worse prognosis than gastric adenocarcinoma. In order to improve the prognosis, it is necessary to diagnose gMANEC at an early stage. However, the endoscopic features of early gMANECs are unclear. We, herein, report a case of early gMANEC that showed characteristic magnifying endoscopic findings. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 78-year-old man was referred to our institution for endoscopic resection of a gastric lesion. He had a medical history of distal gastrectomy due to early gastric cancer with negative surgical margins 9 years previously. DIAGNOSIS: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed a reddish depressed lesion on the suture line of the gastric remnant, which was classified as type 0-IIc according to the Paris classification. ME-NBI at the oral side of the lesion revealed the absence of the microsurface pattern (MSP) and scattered microvessels with dilation and caliber variation, while ME-NBI at the anal side showed an irregularly tubular MSP. An endoscopic forceps biopsy showed a well- to moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma.
interventionsWe performed endoscopic submucosal dissection, and en bloc resection of the tumor was successfully achieved. OUTCOMES: The histological findings showed two distinct components: neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) and well-differentiated adenocarcinoma, which comprised ∼60% and 40% of the tumor, respectively. The NEC component corresponded to the site with the absence of an MSP and scattered microvessels on ME-NBI, while the well-differentiated adenocarcinoma component corresponded to the site with an irregularly tubular MSP. The pathological diagnosis was mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma, infiltrating into the deep submucosal layer. LESSONS: We propose that the absence of an MSP plus an irregular MSP is characteristics of gMANEC, which was useful for the diagnosis of gMANEC before treatment.
