Clinical implications of DNA ploidy, stroma, and nucleotyping in predicting peritoneal metastasis risk for gastric cancer.
Article in BMC cancer, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundGastric cancer peritoneal metastasis lacks effective predictive indices. This article retrospectively explored predictive values of DNA ploidy, stroma, and nucleotyping in gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis.
methodsA comprehensive analysis was conducted on specimens obtained from 80 gastric cancer patients who underwent gastric resection at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery of Wuhan University Renmin Hospital. Tumor tissues were sectioned and stained. DNA ploidy, stroma, and nucleotyping were quantified using microscopy and digital analysis software. Data analysis was employed by Pearson Chi-square, continuous correction Chi-square, and binary logistic regression.
resultsUsing both univariate and multivariate analysis, pathological T stage and nucleotyping exhibited a positive correlation with peritoneal metastasis. DNA ploidy and stroma showed a positive correlation in univariate analysis. Chi-square tests demonstrated a positive correlation of DNA ploidy, stroma, and nucleotyping with peritoneal metastasis. The combined application of these three indicators displayed heightened predictive value for peritoneal metastasis. Non-diploid status, high stroma, and chromosomal heterogeneity emerged as positive factors for peritoneal metastasis in gastric cancer.
conclusionsDNA ploidy, stroma, and nucleotyping prove to be predictive factors for peritoneal metastasis, with enhanced predictive efficacy when combined in pairs.
