Analysis of the therapeutic effect and influencing factors on unresectable gastric cancer treated with conversion therapy.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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: Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death in China, and with the extensive development of conversion therapy, the treatment of advanced unresectable gastric cancer (AUGC) patients has ushered in a new dawn. This study aimed to analyze the efficacy of conversion therapy in AUGC patients and explored the relevant factors affecting the efficacy. Method: We collected information from GC patients who received conversion therapy from this center and designed a retrospective study. Results: We collected relevant clinical data from 160 patients with AUGC. A total of 120 patients who underwent routine R0 resection were identified as conversion cases. A total of 25 patients (15.6%) achieved pCR, 92 patients (57.5%) achieved objective response rate (ORR), 140 patients (87.5%) achieved disease control rate (DCR), and 20 cases (12.5%) observed tumor progression. There were 86 patients who achieved pathological downgrading, with a total downgrading rate of 53.8%. Among the 160 patients, 37 patients (23.1%) had postoperative complications of varying degrees. A total of 72 patients (45.0%) had tumor recurrence/progression at the end of follow-up. The last chemotherapy and surgery (CST) (OR = 1.046, 95% CI 1.013-1.081, Conclusion: Conversion therapy may have a good therapeutic efficacy for AUGC, and some clinical factors affect the efficacy response.
