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

Metastasis of gastric adenocarcinoma typically involves the liver, peritoneum, and lymph nodes, whereas scrotal wall metastasis is extremely rare, with very few cases reported in the literature. We report a case of a 60-year-old male patient who presented with right-sided scrotal swelling. The patient had previously undergone total gastrectomy and multiple chemotherapy sessions for gastric adenocarcinoma. In June 2024, the scrotal wall metastasis of gastric adenocarcinoma was confirmed. The patient underwent excision of the right scrotal lesion, spermatic cord excision, and right epididymis and testis resection. Immunohistochemical markers, such as CK20, CK7, and CDX-2, were positive, which supported the diagnosis of metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma. Follow-up three months post-surgery showed no evidence of tumor recurrence.
