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

We herein describe the rare case of a patient with a gastric duplication cyst who underwent laparoscopic resection. A 67-year-old man was referred to our hospital with an intra-abdominal lesion incidentally diagnosed on abdominal computed tomography. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed normal esophageal and gastric mucosa without any lesions. Abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed an 18 mm well-defined mass adjacent to the lesser curvature side of the esophagogastric junction. Following clinical diagnosis as an intra-abdominal mass, the patient underwent laparoscopic surgery in a five-port setting. The lesion originated from the stomach, near the muscular layer. The stomach muscle layer was partially resected; however, no communication between the mass and gastric mucosa was identified. Macroscopically, the resected specimen was 19 × 18 mm with a smooth surface and distinct margins. Microscopic examination confirmed the diagnosis of a gastric duplication cyst. The inner surface was covered with gastric gland pit-type columnar epithelial cells without atypia or neoplastic changes. The cyst wall presented layers of mucosa, muscularis mucosae, submucosa, muscularis propria, and subserosa. The patient's course after the procedure was uneventful, and he was discharged 8 days postoperatively. Gastric duplication cysts are rare and mostly asymptomatic, and their laparoscopic partial resection is safe and effective.
