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

Small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) is an aggressive malignancy known for its propensity for early and extensive metastatic spread. Gastric metastasis, where cancer cells disseminate from the lung to the stomach, is a rare but increasingly recognized complication of SCLC. This review provides a comprehensive overview of gastric metastasis in SCLC, addressing its clinical significance, diagnostic challenges, management strategies, and prognosis. Additionally, it examines the broader metastatic patterns of SCLC and compares them with other malignancies known for gastric metastasis. Gastric metastasis in SCLC, though infrequent, is clinically significant and often indicates advanced disease with a poor prognosis. SCLC typically metastasizes to the liver, brain, bones, and adrenal glands, with the stomach being an unusual site. The incidence of gastric metastasis ranges from 1% to 5% in autopsy studies, although this may be underestimated due to diagnostic difficulties and asymptomatic early lesions. Diagnosing gastric metastasis presents several challenges, including the asymptomatic nature of many cases, limitations of conventional imaging techniques, and difficulties in distinguishing metastatic lesions from primary gastric cancer
