Impact of laparoscopic gastrectomy on long-term prognosis of patients with primary T3 or more advanced gastric cancer: A propensity score matching analysis.
Article in Annals of gastroenterological surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: There is no consensus regarding a better long-term prognosis with laparoscopic gastrectomy than with open surgery in patients with advanced gastric cancer, especially in patients with T3 or more advanced gastric cancer. We investigated the impact of laparoscopic gastrectomy on the long-term prognosis of patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for primary T3 or more advanced gastric cancer. Methods: This single-center, retrospective cohort study included 294 consecutive patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for primary T3 or more advanced gastric cancer from April 2008 through April 2017. We compared overall survival between laparoscopic and open surgery, using propensity score matching to adjust for baseline characteristics. We also investigated prognostic factors for overall survival by a forward stepwise procedure of Cox proportional hazards regression for multivariate analysis. Results: There were 136 (46.3%) and 158 (53.7%) patients in the laparoscopy and open groups, respectively. The median follow-up period was 39 mo. After matching, there were 97 patients in each group, with no significant differences in background characteristics. After matching, the overall survival was significantly worse in the open group than in the laparoscopy group ( Conclusion: Overall survival may be better with laparoscopic gastrectomy than with open surgery for patients with primary T3 or more advanced gastric cancer.
