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

backgroundGastric schwannoma is a rarely seen gastric tumor accounting for only 0.2% of all gastric tumors. It is difficult to distinguish a gastric schwannoma from other gastric tumors preoperatively.Case presentation: A 30-year-old man with no significant medical history or physical examination findings presented with a 1-month history of right upper abdominal discomfort. The preoperative diagnosis was a gastrointestinal stromal tumor, but the postoperative pathologic and immunohistochemical examinations confirmed a gastric schwannoma. The patient underwent laparoscopic wedge resection of the stomach without additional postoperative treatment, and his postoperative recovery was uneventful. No recurrence or metastasis was found at the 2-year follow-up examination.

conclusionAlthough gastric schwannomas are usually not malignant, they are difficult to distinguish from other malignant stromal tumors preoperatively. Surgical resection should be recommended when a schwannoma is malignant or considered to be at risk of becoming malignant.
