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

backgroundDisease recurrence is the primary cause of death in patients with gastric cancer who have undergone complete surgical resection. No prognostic factors for recurrence, other than the Tumor, Node, and Metastasis stage, have been established. However, recurrence rates differ even within the same Tumor, Node, and Metastasis stage. Therefore, we aimed to develop a new prognostic confidence measure for gastric cancer recurrence and demonstrate its practical utility.

methodsThis was a retrospective study based on the medical records of the Chungnam National University Hospital, Republic of Korea. We enrolled patients diagnosed with stage II/III gastric cancer who underwent complete surgical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy over the past 12 years. The association between seven variables, including the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) and gastric cancer recurrence, was analyzed.

resultsA total of 296 patients were enrolled in this study. Although other factors did not exhibit significant correlations, SIRI showed a significant positive correlation with gastric cancer recurrence risk, confirmed through Cox regression testing (hazard ratio, 1.231; 95% confidence interval, 1.04-1.45). Linear regression analysis revealed a significant association between higher SIRI values and shorter recurrence time (

conclusionsIn this study, other than SIRI, effective prognostic factors related to gastric cancer recurrence were not verified, thus indicating SIRI as a potential independent prognostic factor.
