Ewing's Sarcoma of Stomach Masquerading as Gastric Cancer: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Euroasian journal of hepato-gastroenterology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Ewing's sarcomas (ES) are exceedingly malignant undifferentiated small round cell tumors of the neuroectodermal origin. It primarily occurs in the skeletal tissue; however, it has also been documented in extraskeletal tissues, including the small intestine, esophagus, vagina, pancreas, ovaries, rectovaginal septum, prostate, and kidneys.Extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma (EES) constitutes approximately 15-20% of neoplasms within the ES family, which includes both Ewing sarcoma/peripheral neuroectodermal tumors (ES/PNET) and EES. Extraskeletal ES are frequently observed in the paraspinal region, limbs and retro peritoneum. Encountering primary gastric ES is exceptionally rare. Methods and result: We, herby, present here an extremely rare case of primary gastric ES in a 17-year-old male who had presented to us with features of gastric outlet obstruction. Contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography revealed an asymmetrical circumferential thickening of about 5 cm in the antropyloric region of the stomach and the first part of the duodenum, with multiple enlarged perigastric lymph nodes. Endoscopic biopsy revealed a tumor composed of cells arranged in nests, cords and sheets. An extensive immunohistochemistry panel examination found tumor cells to be strongly positive for vimentin, NKX2.2, FLI1, CD99 and CK.The patient received 9 weeks of neoadjuvant chemotherapy based on IE-VAC regimen. The patient underwent elective classical pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple's procedure). The postoperative course of the patient unfolded without any complications. The patient was subsequently discharged in a state of good health 12 days post-procedure. Thereafter, he underwent four cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy. Discussion: A review of the elucidated cases of primary gastric Ewing's sarcoma depicts its aggressive nature with frequent regional and distant metastasis, and mostly manifesting through non-specific clinical features, thereby, evading early diagnostic efforts. A comprehensive multimodal therapeutic strategy, with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgical intervention is typically employed.We, thus, report this case to help with disease identification and acceptance for the clinicians.
