Individualized treatment for gastric cancer with rib metastasis: A case report.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundGastric cancer (GC) with bone metastasis is rare, and rib metastasis is even less common. The clinical prognosis of GC with bone metastasis is poor given the lack of an effective treatment. CASE SUMMARY: A 70 year old man was referred to Shaoxing People's Hospital with left chest pain and slight dyspnea. Chest computed tomography (CT) revealed a metastatic lesion in the left 3rd rib. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed several ulcers in the angle and antrum of the stomach, and tumor biomarkers including CEA and CA-199 were clearly increased. In addition, lymph node metastasis in the lesser curvature of the stomach was identified by positron emission tomography/CT scanning. Further pathological examination confirmed metastatic adenocarcinoma in the rib and medium-low differentiated adenocarcinoma in the gastric space. The patient had GC with rib metastasis, and was clinically staged as T
conclusionThe incidence of GC with rib metastases is extremely low, and patients can obtain more benefits from individualized treatment formulated by multidisciplinary team. Chemotherapy plus surgery might represent an alternative option for GC with rib metastasis.
