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

Aim: To investigate the factors associated with BWL after gastrectomy using data from the phase III trial (JCOG1001). Methods: This post hoc analysis included 728 patients from the JCOG1001. The percentage of BWL (%BWL) was defined as the proportion of decrease in body weight immediately before adjuvant chemotherapy initiation compared with that before surgery. Background, surgery, and postoperative data were compared between patients with and without a %BWL ≥ 10. The impact of each factor for a %BWL ≥ 10 was calculated using logistic regression analysis. Results: %BWL ≥ 10 was observed in 258 (35.4%) patients. Male sex, preoperative body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25, total gastrectomy, operation time ≥ 238 min, intraoperative blood loss ≥ 285 mL, and postoperative complications were more frequent among patients with %BWL ≥ 10. Using multivariable analysis, a preoperative BMI ≥ 25 (odds ratio [OR] 1.870, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.267-2.762, Conclusion: High preoperative BMI, total gastrectomy, and/or postoperative complications were risk factors for postoperative BWL ≥ 10% after gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Trial Registration: The JCOG1001 was registered with UMIN-CTR, under the number UMIN000003688.
