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

introductionGastrointestinal stromal tumor of the stomach with lymph node metastasis is a rare condition, and few cases have been treated by gastrectomy and systematic lymph node dissection. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We report the case of a patient who was treated by local resection with laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery and lymph node pick-up resection. A 73-year-old woman presented with gastric submucosal tumor and swollen lymph node. The submucosal tumor was 30 mm in size. After surgery, the tumor was confirmed to be a gastrointestinal stromal tumor by immunostaining. No recurrence was noted 36 months following the surgery. DISCUSSION: Laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery allows minimal resection because the exact resection margin can be identified. Therefore, endoscopy is a useful aid in the treatment of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor. The MIB-1 index of metastatic lymph node was lower than that of a primary lesion; hence, the prognosis might not depend on lymph node metastasis.

conclusionLaparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery and lymph node pick-up resection were useful and minimally invasive. Systematic lymph node dissection is not a viable option.
