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

Gastric mixed adenocarcinoma-neuroendocrine tumor (NET) is a rare composite tumor, and a limited number of studies have reported on it. A 77-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of acute cholecystitis. He underwent a cholecystectomy. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy during his admission revealed a slightly elevated tumor, and biopsy demonstrated a well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma. The tumor was resected completely by endoscopic submucosal dissection. Histological findings showed that it measured 9 mm in diameter, was located within the mucosa, and consisted of well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma and a NET G1. The NET was covered with adenocarcinoma and both components exhibited histological continuity. The NET and a part of the adenocarcinoma component showed a positive reaction for chromogranin A and synaptophysin. Neither enterochromaffin-like cell hyperplasia nor endocrine cell micronest surrounded the tumor. The diagnosis was gastric mixed adenocarcinoma-NET. The histological continuity between the two components can be likened to the same histogenesis.
