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 cancer is a common malignancy worldwide and poses a serious threat to human public health. The difficulty in obtaining epidemiological data limits the development of cross-disciplinary related research. In this study, 99,364 publications on gastric cancer from 1991 to 2019 were obtained using web-crawler technology, and a technical framework for extracting toponyms from these publications was constructed to analyze spatiotemporal hotspots of study areas in gastric cancer research in China. The results showed the following: (1) The accuracy of toponym extraction was greatly improved after eliminating the systematic exclusion words and adding historical toponyms, with a precision of 95.31% and a recall of 94.86%. (2) Gastric cancer research (GCR) and gastric cancer research with toponyms (GCRWT) are attracting increasing amounts of attention. The amount of GCR results published in Chinese and English is gradually leveling off, and the imbalance between those of GCRWT is gradually widening. (3) The spatial distribution of gastric cancer research in China is uneven, and the hotspots are mainly located in the eastern coastal areas. There were huge advances in gastric cancer research at the province/city/county scale in Eastern China, while the central region has only increased research at the county scale. We suggest that gastric cancer research should pay more attention to the central region, which has the highest gastric cancer incidence/mortality. This study provides important clues for research on and investigations of gastric cancer.
