Impact of Sex-Specific Preoperative Fat Mass Assessment on Long-Term Prognosis after Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer.
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
We investigated the impact of the difference in fat distribution between men and women on long-term prognosis after gastrectomy in patients with advanced gastric cancer. Patients with advanced gastric cancer deeper than p-T2 who underwent gastrectomy between April 2008 and June 2018 were included. Visceral fat mass index (VFI) and subcutaneous fat mass index (SFI) were calculated by dividing the cross-sectional area at the umbilical level by the height squared. The medians of VFI and SFI by sex were defined as cut-off values, below which values were defined as low VFI and low SFI. Of the 485 patients, 323 (66.6%) were men and 162 (33.4%) were women. Men with a low VFI had a significantly worse overall survival (OS) (
