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

backgroundComputed tomography (CT) technology has been gradually used in the differentiation of small mesenchymal tumors of the stomach and intestines from smooth muscle tumours.

aimTo explore the value of enhanced CT in the differentiation of small mesenchymal tumors of the stomach and intestines from smooth muscle tumours.

methodsClinical data of patients with gastric mesenchymal or gastric smooth muscle tumours who were treated in our hospital from May 2018 to April 2023 were retrospectively analysed. Patients were divided into the gastric mesenchymal tumor group and the gastric smooth muscle tumor group respectively (

resultsCEA levels varied among the three groups in the following order: The gastric mesenchymal tumour group > the control group > the gastric smooth muscle tumour group. CA19-9 levels varied among the three groups in the following order: The gastric mesenchymal group > the gastric smooth muscle group > the control group, the difference was statistically significant (

conclusionEnhanced CT has shown value in differentiating small mesenchymal tumors of the stomach and intestines from smooth muscle tumors.
