"A hybrid approach for GISTs near the esophagogastric junction, a case report".
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
introduction and importanceGastrointestinal stromal tumors are the most frequent mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. Complete resection of GISTs is the only chance of cure for patients. When these tumors are located near the esophagogastric junction, the surgical risk can cause deformity or stenosis in the gastric inlet, leading to higher complications and diminishing their quality of life. In such cases, a more sophisticated and tailored approach should be used. CASE PRESENTATION: We present the case of a 42-year-old female; she presented to our office with a 3-year history of nausea, vomiting and abdominal distension. Two GISTs were located near the EGJ, and with a combined approach we achieved complete resection. On follow-ups, the patient is doing well. CLINICAL DISCUSSION
conclusionWhen diagnosis is confirmed, surgical resection must be the first choice for GISTs as complete surgical excision is the only permanent cure. The rise of endoscopic surgery has become a valuable tool and a critical element in surgery. Hybrid techniques that combine laparoscopic and endoscopic approaches can improve the patient's outcomes and provide better results.
