Case Report: Severe osteoporosis misunderstood by bone metastasis after total gastrectomy and multiple metastasectomy.

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
After radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer, patients should be monitored from two perspectives. One is local recurrence or metastasis, and the other is nutritional and metabolic side effects. Herein, we report a case of severe osteoporosis that was misunderstood for bone metastasis due to increased bone scan and positron emission tomography-computed tomography uptake in the patient who underwent total gastrectomy and consecutive multivisceral metastasectomy. She was administered bisphosphonates, calcium carbonate, and cholecalciferol. After 3 months, a follow-up bone scan revealed decreased intensity of hot-uptake lesions, healed fracture lesions, and eventually improved bone pain. This study supports the need for careful nutritional screening as well as cancer surveillance after gastrectomy for gastric cancer and the need for screening guidelines for bone metabolic diseases.
