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

Objectives: To mitigate the incidence of misdiagnosis and distinguish between gastric fundic tumors (GFTs) and thickened diaphragmatic crura (TDC). Materials and methods: Computed tomographic enterography (CTE) data from 3844 cases and computed tomographic gastrography (CTG) data from 4351 cases were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 105 cases were selected and categorized into three groups: 47 cases with TDC examined via CTE, 31 with adenocarcinoma, and 27 with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) examined via CTG. Inter-group differences in age, sex distribution, mass dimensions, mass-stomach interface (MSI), chief complaints, gastric underlying diseases, and enhancement patterns were analyzed. Results: The misdiagnosis rate of TDC as a tumor by radiologists is approximately 1.2% (47/3844). Age ( Conclusions: Misdiagnosis of GFTs is occasionally and may be challenging to differentiate from TDC using CTE. To drastically lower the chance of misdiagnosis, this research aimed to assist radiologists in identifying and considering the possibility of TDC.
