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

backgroundExtragastrointestinal stromal tumors (EGIST) and gastrointestinal stromal tumors are of similar pathological type and form. Here we report a rare case of EGIST diffusely distributed in membranous tissue in abdominal cavity, the feature of which included diffuse tumors at membranous tissue in entire abdominal cavity and spontaneous bleeding of the tumors. CASE SUMMARY: The patient was a 71-year man and hospitalized due to continuous pain at lower abdomen for more than 10 days. Upon physical examination, the patient had flat and tough abdomen with mild pressing pain at lower abdomen, no obvious abdominal mass was touchable, and shifting dullness was positive. Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (CT) showed that in his peritoneal cavity, there were multiple nodules of various sizes, seroperitoneum, multiple enlarged lymph nodes in abdominal/pelvic cavity and right external ilium as well as pulmonary nodules. Plain CT scanning at epigastrium/hypogastrium/pelvic cavity + enhanced three-dimensional reconstruction revealed multiple soft tissue nodules in abdominal/pelvic cavity, peritoneum and right groin. Tumor marker of carbohydrate antigen 125 was 808 U/mL, diffuse tuberous tumor was seen in abdominal/pelvic cavity during operation with hematocelia, and postoperative pathological examination confirmed EGIST. Imatinib was administered with better therapeutic effect.
