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

True ureteral metastases from gastric cancer are extremely rare. Only a few cases of this condition have been reported. CT is the first-line imaging technique and may aid the diagnosis, even if the definitive diagnosis is histologic. We report a case of a 45-year-old female with a history of gastric cancer who underwent subtotal gastrectomy and presented 2 years later with ureteral metastasis and subsequently renal pelvis metastasis in absence of peritoneal involvement. A biopsy was required to rule out primary urothelial carcinoma and make a well-timed and proper diagnosis. We describe the pathologic and radiological features of this case, followed by a brief review of the literature included in the discussion.
