Safety, efficacy, and selection strategy of laparoscopic local gastrectomy for gastrointestinal stromal tumors in the esophagogastric junction.

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
Objective: To investigate the safety, efficacy, and selection strategy of laparoscopic local gastrectomy for stromal tumors in the esophagogastric junction. Methods: Thirty-eight patients with mesenchymal tumors in the esophagogastric junction were retrospectively enrolled from April 2018 to July 2021 in which the upper edge of the tumor is less than 2 cm from the Z-line or has invaded the Z-line <1/2 circumference. Surgical outcomes, complications, recover, and postoperative gastroesophageal reflux of both groups were compared. Results: 27 patients underwent wedge resection, and 11 underwent resection by opening all of the layers of the stomach wall. Operative time (90.0 vs. 181.8 min, respectively, Conclusion: Laparoscopic local gastrectomy is safe and feasible for mesenchymal tumors in the esophagogastric junction in which the upper edge of the tumor is less than 2 cm from the Z-line or has invaded the Z-line <1/2 circumference, and has achieved an excellent short-term effect. The choice of surgery is based on the relationship between the tumor and the position of the cardia.
