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 adenomyoma (GA) in children is a relatively rare condition, and currently, there is limited knowledge regarding its optimal diagnostic methods and treatment strategies. To improve our understanding GA particularly in children, one case of a 4-month-old boy was reported and existing literature was comprehensively reviewed. CASE SUMMARY: A 4-month-old boy was admitted to the hospital with a 2-month history of recurrent vomiting of gastric contents. Ultrasound examination demonstrated that the pyloric canal muscle was 3.2 mm in thickness, 14.6 mm in diameter, and 17.6 mm in length. Pathological finding showed that a mass approximately 2.8 cm × 2 cm × 1.5 cm in size and grayish-white in color was detected. The cystic wall was composed of smooth muscles lined with the gastric mucosal epithelium and a small amount of intestinal epithelium. Scattered glandular epithelium and a small amount of pancreatic tissue were observed in smooth muscle. Immunohistochemistry revealed positivity for gastrin, insulin, and smooth muscle actin, confirming the diagnosis of GA. In addition, the Ki-67 proliferation index was low.

conclusionWe report a case of GA in children, successfully treated with laparoscopic surgery. Ultrasound and computed tomography may be helpful in differential diagnosis when detecting low-density septal lesions biased toward one side. We also review the existing literature data regarding GA in children.
