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

objectiveAdvanced gastric cancer (AGC) is a severe malignant tumor, and overexpression of HER2/ERBB2 may play a crucial role in its development. The purpose of this study is to investigate the overexpression of HER2/ERBB2 in gastric cancer through a meta-analysis and examine its relationship with perfusion parameters using dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) technology.

methodsWe conducted an extensive literature search and collected relevant studies for the meta-analysis. We used a random-effects model and assigned weights using the "inverse variance" method. Additionally, we included 95 AGC patients diagnosed pathologically between April 2018 and October 2021. They all underwent DCE-MRI scans, and the data were subsequently analyzed using the Omni kinetic software. HER2 expression was assessed using immunohistochemistry.

resultsThe meta-analysis revealed an overall odds ratio (OR) of .21 for HER2/ERBB2 overexpression in gastric cancer, with a 95% confidence interval of [.14, .30]. DCE-MRI results showed a significant association between high HER2 expression and poor tumor differentiation (

conclusionOverexpression of HER2/ERBB2 in gastric cancer is significantly associated with certain radiomic parameters of DCE-MRI, providing a valuable diagnostic tool for clinical practice. Furthermore, the meta-analysis further confirmed the critical role of HER2/ERBB2 in the development of gastric cancer.
