Gastric cancer in the pediatric population, a multicenter cross-sectional analysis of presentation and coexisting comorbidities.
Article in Journal of cancer research and clinical oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectivesSolid tumors of the stomach in children are rare, adenocarcinoma being most frequently reported. Risk factors and clinical presentation are poorly understood. We undertook a nationwide database analysis to evaluate pediatric CA stomach presentation, comorbidities, and metastatic pattern.
methodsThe Cerner Health Facts Database
resultsThe cohort included 333 patients from a base population of 9.6 million children. The M:F ratio was 1.15:1, mean age at diagnosis was 11.8 years. Stomach cancer was most prevalent in non-Hispanic whites, less in Asians and African Americans. Symptoms included abdominal pain, vomiting, anemia, diarrhea and weight loss. Reflux symptoms, esophagitis, gastritis, including H. pylori and duodenitis were reported in 10.2%. Obesity, obesity-related comorbidities, tobacco exposure and family history of colonic polyps, gastrointestinal and breast cancer were all more prevalent (P < 0.0001) in the cohort. DISCUSSION: We defined patient demographic characteristics, anatomic distribution in a large cohort of children with solid tumors of the stomach. Reported symptoms in our cohort are similar to those observed in adults. Associated comorbidities which may reflect risk factors include obesity, tobacco exposure and family history of intestinal polyps and malignancy.
