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

Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are considered the most common mesenchymal neoplasms of the alimentary tract, yet they account for only 0.2% of all gastrointestinal neoplasms. We are presenting a case of a 68-year-old gentleman who was diagnosed with a 250 mm jejunal GIST only when he presented with abdominal pain and fullness in the upper abdomen. We believe that detailed medical history, followed by prompt investigations, will help in early diagnosis of small GISTs with less malignant potential, which in turn will lead to better outcomes.
