Application of Circulating Tumor Cells and Interleukin-6 in Preoperative Prediction of Peritoneal Metastasis of Advanced Gastric Cancer.

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: The purpose of this study was to explore the clinical significance of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and cytokines in peripheral blood in preoperative prediction of peritoneal metastasis (PM) in advanced gastric cancer (AGC). Methods: The clinicopathological characteristics of 282 patients with AGC were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into training and validation groups according to the time of receiving treatment. We used univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis to screen out the independent risk factors of PM in AGC. Then, we incorporated independent risk factors into the nomogram, and evaluated the discriminative ability. Results: The levels of CTCs and interleukin-6 (IL-6) of AGC patients with PM were higher than those without PM (P<0.05). Moreover, the levels of CTCs and IL-6 in the occult peritoneal metastasis (OPM) group and the CT-positive PM group were higher than those in the negative PM (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that IL-6 > 12.22 pg/mL, CTCs > 4/5mL, CA724 > 6 IU/mL, CA125 > 35 U/mL and tumor size > 5 cm were independent risk factors for PM of AGC. The area under the ROC curve of the nomogram were 0.898 and 0.926 in the training and validation sets, respectively. The clinical decision curve showed that the nomogram had good clinical utility. Conclusion: CTCs and IL-6 in peripheral blood are promising biomarkers for predicting the risk of PM in AGC. The nomogram constructed from five risk factors can effectively assess the risk of PM in AGC patients individually.
