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

Background: Gastric cancer remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality. While immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have emerged as promising therapies, their efficacy is hindered by the lack of robust patient-centric biomarkers. CT-derived extracellular volume fraction (ECV) has emerged as a novel approach for non-invasive quantification of the extracellular matrix (ECM). This study assesses the predictive value of ECV, a non-invasive imaging biomarker, in gastric cancer patients receiving programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) inhibitors. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 101 gastric adenocarcinoma patients (stage III: Results: Kaplan-Meier survival curves indicated that the ECV-higher group had shorter progression-free survival (PFS) ( Conclusion: CT-derived ECV may serve as an independent predictor of long-term survival in gastric cancer patients undergoing immunotherapy.
