Prognosis of Elderly Patients with Advanced Gastric Cancer without Serosal Invasion.
Article in Journal of cancer & allied specialties, 2022. 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
Introduction: The impact of age on the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer is controversial. This study aimed to investigate the clinicopathologic features and prognosis of elderly advanced gastric cancer patients without serosal invasion compared to their younger counterparts. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 43 elderly patients with advanced gastric cancer without serosal invasion. The clinicopathologic findings were compared between the elderly (age >70 years) and young (age <36 years) patients. Results: Significantly higher numbers of elderly patients had tumours with differentiated histology, whereas more young patients had tumours with undifferentiated histology ( Conclusion: Elderly patients with advanced gastric cancer without serosal invasion do not have a worse prognosis than their younger counterparts, indicating that age does not impact the prognosis of advanced gastric cancer. The important prognostic factor was whether the patients underwent curative resection.
