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

backgroundMetastatic disease traditionally classifies gastric cancer as stage M1, precluding surgical intervention and enrolling patients in palliative treatment protocols. This principle holds regardless of the number, the location, and the quantity of metastatic sites. "Oligometastatic disease" is an intermediate state between localized and widely spread gastric cancer.

methodsLocoregional treatments may offer long survival or even cure in highly selected cases. There are no evidence-based guidelines for the appropriate management of this clinical entity. Tailored strategic techniques are required to incorporate surgical treatment, when applicable, into the management protocols of these patients. The surgical approach (following neoadjuvant treatment) aiming at R0 resection of neoplasms that are technically or oncologically unresectable, or only borderline resectable at initial evaluation is defined as "conversion therapy".

resultsThe surgical approach aims at locoregional control of the disease, radical resection of all cancer sites, adequate lymph node cleansing and uncomplicated anastomosis. Disease progression is a clear indication of palliative treatment. In this article, we aim to provide an extensive literature search about current status of oligometastatic gastric disease multimodal treatment.

conclusionsGiven the malignancy potential of gastric cancer, the decision for an operative approach should be made with strict criteria by experienced surgeons and rational oncologists.
