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: The endoscopic features of gastric neuroendocrine tumors (G-NETs) remain unclarified. The present study investigated the endoscopic features of G-NETs in relation to the clinicopathological findings. Methods: This retrospective study analyzed consecutive patients with G-NETs who received endoscopic or surgical treatment between January 2005 and December 2023. The endoscopic and clinicopathological findings of the lesions were analyzed to provide diagnostic information. Results: Among 29 patients, the characteristic endoscopic findings of G-NETs on white-light images were reddish color (66%), dilated vessels (83%), submucosal tumor-like marginal elevation (59%), and central depression (48%). The gross appearance of G-NETs was classified into two macroscopic subtypes: reddish polypoid lesions ( Conclusions: These endoscopic features should increase the index of suspicion and help clinicians to correctly diagnose G-NETs through the pathological examination of biopsy specimens.
