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

α-Fetoprotein (AFP)-producing gastric carcinoma (GC) (AFPGC) is a special subtype of GC that is clinically characterized by a high incidence of liver metastasis and poor prognosis. The present study reported the case of a patient with AFPGC who showed complete response (CR) after stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for liver metastasis. A 76-year-old male patient underwent total gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection for GC. The excised tumor was diagnosed as AFPGC due to the patient's high serum AFP level (3,763 ng/ml) and AFP expression on immunohistochemistry. The patient was diagnosed with liver metastasis two months after the surgery.
