A case report and literature review: gastric cancer with Krukenberg tumor in a patient with situs inversus totalis.

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
The primary modes of metastasis of gastric cancer are through the bloodstream and lymph nodes. However, in cases such as the Krukenberg tumor (KT), gastric cancer cells can spread to organs within the abdominal cavity and develop implantation metastases. This report describes the treatment process for a patient with situs inversus totalis (SIT), gastric cancer, and a KT. A 63-year-old woman with SIT presented with abnormal vaginal bleeding and was diagnosed with gastric cancer with KT. After careful evaluation, the patient underwent total gastrectomy (Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy, antecolic, and D2 lymph node dissection), total hysterectomy plus double adnexectomy, and appendectomy. Considering the patient's SIT, we devised a modified surgical strategy. The surgery was successful. Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy was administered, and her current evaluation indicated stable disease. Although gastric cancer complicated by KT is rare, it occurs in some cases. Surgical treatment should be considered if both the primary and secondary lesions can be radically resected and supplemented with systemic chemotherapy. For patients with SIT, the surgical approach should be appropriately adjusted with careful preoperative evaluation to ensure procedural safety.
