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

backgroundGastric oxyntic gland adenoma is a rare neoplasm often misdiagnosed as a hyperplastic or fundic gland polyp due to nonspecific endoscopic features and the limitations of superficial biopsies, leading to diagnostic delays. CASE SUMMARY: In 2020, a gastroscopy of a 47-year-old man revealed a 0.5 cm lesion that was diagnosed as a hyperplastic polyp by superficial biopsy. By 2022, the lesion had enlarged to 1.0 cm exhibiting firmness, bleeding tendency, and disrupted submucosal layers on endoscopic ultrasound. Repeat biopsies again suggested hyperplasia. Endoscopic submucosal dissection was performed, confirming the diagnosis of gastric oxyntic gland adenoma. Additional surgical resection confirmed negative margins, and no recurrence at the three-year postoperative follow-up. However, endoscopic ultrasound revealed localized thickening (1.2 mm) of the muscularis mucosae at the gastric lesser curvature, likely representing post-procedural fibrosis. The patient was clinically asymptomatic, and was advised to continue annual endoscopic monitoring.

conclusionThis case highlights the necessity of deep biopsy or complete resection for diagnosis. We recommend long-term endoscopic surveillance post-resection and heightened clinical vigilance to mitigate misdiagnosis risks.
