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

Background: The prognostic significance of Lauren's classification in elderly early gastric cancer (EGC) patients remains largely unknown. We aim to investigate the characteristics and clinical implications of Lauren's classification in elderly EGC patients. Methods: Patients were collected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression, propensity score matching, inverse-probability-weighted analysis, and propensity-score adjustment were utilized to evaluate the association between Lauren's classification and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in elderly EGC patients. Stratification and interaction analyses were used to reveal the effects of confounding factors on the association between Lauren's classification and CSS. Results: The diffuse type (median, 41.0 months) showed a similar survival (37.0 months), and was mainly distributed in female group (62.5% Conclusions: Diffuse type was mainly distributed in female patients with more poorly differentiated/undifferentiated components and similar prognosis compared with intestinal type in age 75 and older EGC patients. No significant association was observed between diffuse type and CSS of the elderly EGC patients.
