Clinical implications and chemo-sensitivity of adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with poorly cohesive cells-gastric cancer.
Article in Cancer chemotherapy and pharmacology, 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
purposePoorly cohesive cells-gastric cancer (PCC-GC) represents distinct features within the GC spectrum. The present study investigated the clinicopathologic characteristics and chemo-sensitivity for a relatively large cohort of PCC-GC patients. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 268 patients diagnosed with stage II or III PCC-GC were included. GC cell lines were also analyzed for drug sensitivity to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and oxaliplatin in vitro.
resultsOne hundred fifteen (42.9%) patients were stage II and 153 (57.1%) were stage III. Two hundred twenty-three (83.2%) patients received adjuvant therapy. Among these patients, 139 (62.3%) received CAPOX and 84 (37.7%) received S-1. With a median follow-up of 38.9 (1.6-137.8) months, the estimated 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 52.3% and 61.0%, respectively. In the univariate analysis, survival was significantly better in the adjuvant chemotherapy group than in the surgery only group. In the subgroup analysis, there was no significant difference in DFS or OS between the types of adjuvant chemotherapy for either disease stage. In vitro cell line analysis, different responses to 5-FU and oxaliplatin were observed in SRC and non-SRC, where the treatment in KATOIII cell lines with oxaliplatin had less effect at a higher concentration compared to non-SRC cell lines.
conclusionThe current study found that adjuvant chemotherapy was not significantly associated with survival benefit for patients with resected stage II and III PCC-GC. Plus, S-1 showed numerically longer DFS and OS compared to CAPOX in PCC-GC patients, although no significant in the multivariate analysis.
