1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Gastric schwannomas are rare, slow-growing tumors whose clinical presentation is nonspecific. These are mostly benign, with a low probability of malignant transformation and an excellent prognosis. We present 2 cases of gastric schwannomas with distinct clinical features and imaging patterns, whose therapeutic approach differed. Case 1 is a 73-year-old woman with a voluminous subepithelial lesion in the greater gastric curvature, with predominantly endoluminal growth. Clinically the patient presented with nonspecific abdominal complaints and underwent complete surgical excision. Case 2 is a 69-year-old woman with an exophytic lesion adjacent to the gastric antrum, diagnosed incidentally and managed conservatively, with imaging follow-up, for the last 5 years and stable ever since. This article aims to focus on this rare disease, illustrating its main imaging findings, particularly in magnetic resonance imaging, along with pathological correlation, as well as reviewing the literature, discussing the differential diagnosis, and exploring clinical management and prognosis.
