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
We performed the accurate diagnosis and complete surgical resection of a gastrointestinal stromal tumor at the mesentery of the small bowel. Computed tomography (CT) in a 62-year-old man at 2 years after gastrectomy for gastric cancer showed a mesenteric tumor, with no other tumors noted. Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) showed a maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max) of 2.9 at the tumor. The presence of a single and low SUV max tumor allowed us to perform laparoscopic surgery. Partial resection of the tumor with an adequate margin was performed. The pathological findings showed c-kit positivity and a low Ki-67 proliferation index (<5%). In the present case, PET-CT and laparoscopic assessments were useful for accurately evaluating the surgical resectability of the mesenteric tumor after distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer. The low SUV max and laparoscopic findings led to complete surgical resection of a mesenteric tumor.
