A study of outcomes, technical safety, and feasibility of D-2 lymphadenectomy in gastric cancer.

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
BACKGROUND AND
aimLymph node dissection in gastric cancer had been controversial, but recent data have led us to the conclusion that D-2 dissection should be the standard of care for potentially curable advanced gastric carcinoma. In this study, we present our single-institution experience of D-2 lymph node dissection.
methodsFrom January 2013 to September 2018, 115 patients of gastric cancer were treated with D-2 gastrectomy, 91 of whom met the criteria for study analysis. Data were statistically described as frequencies and percentages where appropriate. Survival curves were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox regression was used to assess the risk among groups. A
resultsThe majority of patients (86.8%) had Clavien-Dindo grade I postoperative surgical complications; 90-day mortality was seen in five (5.5%) patients. Patients with stages I, II, and III had survival rates of 100%, 71.4%; 53.2%, 44.4%; and 27.8%, 28.1%, respectively, for ages <55 and >55 years. Overall recurrence free survival rates were 26 and 28% for <55 years and >55 years, respectively, with a
conclusionsThis retrospective study conducted in our institute on patients with gastric cancer undergoing D-2 lymphadenectomy has shown that the addition of D-2 lymph node dissection, when performed at high-volume centers, have acceptable morbidity and mortality rates. This can be seen from our grades of postoperative surgical complications, 90-day mortality, and overall 5-year survival.
