Solitary metachronous adrenal metastasis after radical resection of gastric large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma: a case report and literature review.
Review in The Journal of international medical research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Surgical resection is rarely employed for the treatment of metastatic gastric cancer, especially in patients with adrenal metastases, which usually indicate advanced systemic dissemination. Few published case reports have thus described the use of adrenalectomy for adrenal metastases from gastric cancer. In addition, most primary gastric malignancies are gastric adenocarcinomas, and gastric large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (GLCNEC) is less common and has a poor prognosis. We report the case of a 71-year-old man who was diagnosed with solitary adrenal metastases 10 months after radical resection for GLCNEC and who was treated by adrenalectomy. He was followed-up for 9 months after adrenalectomy, with no further evidence of disease at his last follow-up examination. This case indicates that elective surgical resection may be feasible, even in rare cases of GLCNEC metastases to the adrenal glands, provided that the patient meets certain criteria, including solitary, metachronous tumors less than 4 cm.
