Epstein-Barr virus detection in endoscopic submucosal dissection-proven early gastric cancer with mixed-type histology.
Article in Cancer reports (Hoboken, N.J.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundsEarly gastric cancer (EGC) with mixed-type histology is a significant risk factor for additional surgery after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). On the other hand, Epstein-Barr virus-associated gastric cancer (EBVaGC) with mixed-type histology is a favorable risk factor with regard to lymph node metastasis.
methodsWe performed EBV detection in 13 ESD-proven lesions in 13 cases of early gastric cancer with mixed-type histology using EBV-encoded small RNA1 in situ hybridization (EBER1 ISH).
resultsEBVaGC was diagnosed in only one (7.7%) of the tested lesions. That EBVaGC patient underwent surgery and there was no residual lesion and no lymph metastasis. EBVaGC is not frequent in EGC with mixed-type histology.
conclusionsEBV testing of gastric biopsy specimens seems not to be useful to predict the mixed-type histology results of ESD. However, EBV testing for ESD specimens of EGC with mixed-type histology is expected to be useful for avoiding excessive additional surgery.
