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 dysplasia signifies the presence of atypical cells in the gastric mucosa, which have not invaded beyond the lamina propria, and it rarely leads to tissue growth large enough to cause gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) to the gastric contents. However, GOO is commonly observed as a first clinical manifestation of advanced invasive gastric cancer in developing countries where patients seek medical care late. The present case highlights the treatment journey of a young woman who presented to us with features of GOO. Her endoscopic and radiological findings revealed a nodular gastric antral thickening causing GOO. An endoscopic biopsy showed features of dysplasia. She underwent distal gastrectomy following discussion in a multidisciplinary tumour board. Histopathological examination of the gastrectomy specimen confirmed dysplasia without any invasion beyond lamina. To the best of our knowledge, this is perhaps the first report of dysplasia of the stomach presenting as GOO.
