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

backgroundEndoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a safe and minimally invasive procedure for early gastric cancer (EGC). However, little is known about the adverse events and prognosis of gastric ESD in much older adult patients with age-related comorbidities. Therefore, we aimed to elucidate factors associated with the adverse events and prognosis of ESD for EGC in patients ≥ 85 years.

methodsWe enrolled 853 patients with 920 lesions ≥ 85 years old from 19 institutions who underwent ESD for EGC between January 2006 and December 2020. We adapted the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) and analyzed the associations between GNRI and major adverse events post-ESD bleeding or perforation using logistic regression analysis. Subsequently, we performed the Cox proportional hazard model to elucidate whether age-related factors were associated with three-year overall survival.

resultsGNRI was significantly related with post-ESD bleeding [odds ratio (OR), 0.98; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.96-1.00, p = 0.003]. Age (hazard ratio (HR); 95% CI 1.12 [1.02-1.22], p = 0.002), male (2.29 [1.24-3.34], p = 0.005), ECOG-Performance status (1.31 [1.16-1.75], p = 0.006), Charlson Comorbidity Index (1.17 [1.03-1.33], p = 0.002), and poor GNRI (0.92 [0.90-0.94], p < 0.001) were significantly correlated with three-year overall survival.

conclusionsNutritional status was associated with post-ESD bleeding. Nutritional status and comorbidities were related with prognosis after gastric ESD. Therefore, indications of gastric ESD in patients ≥ 85 years old need to be considered with age-related comorbidities.
