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

Gastric cancer (GC) is a prevalent digestive system tumor, the fifth most diagnosed cancer worldwide, and a leading cause of cancer deaths. GC is distinguished by its pronounced heterogeneity and a dynamically evolving tumor microenvironment (TME). The lack of accurate disease models complicates the understanding of its mechanisms and impedes the discovery of novel drugs. A growing body of evidence suggests that GC organoids, developed using organoid culture technology, preserve the genetic, phenotypic, and behavioral characteristics. GC organoids hold significant potential for predicting treatment responses in individual patients. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current clinical treatment strategies for GC, as well as the history, construction and clinical applications of organoids. The focus is on the role of organoids in simulating the TME to explore mechanisms of immune evasion and intratumoral microbiota in GC, as well as their applications in guiding clinical drug therapy and facilitating novel drug screening. Furthermore, we summarize the limitations of GC organoid models and underscore the need for continued technological advancements to benefit both basic and translational oncological research.
