Synchronous Gastric Metastasis From Sigmoid Colon Cancer: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer worldwide, and as such is a significant global health concern. Distant metastases of colorectal cancer to the lung, liver, and bone are well documented, while gastrointestinal tract (GIT) metastases are very rare. Herein, we report a case of gastric metastasis from sigmoid colon cancer. A 78-year-old male was diagnosed with both gastric and colorectal cancer, which occurred synchronously. The presence of two primary cancers was diagnosed, and radical subtotal gastrectomy and anterior resection were performed simultaneously. The postoperative pathology report showed a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma in the sigmoid colon and stomach. Immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis revealed that the resected gastric specimens showed tumor cells that were positive for both cytokeratin 20 (CK20) and caudal-type homeobox gene 2 (CDX2) and negative for CK7. This confirmed that the gastric lesion was a metastasis from colorectal cancer. Clinicians should be aware of the potential presence of metastatic gastric cancer, whether synchronous or metachronous, in other solid organ malignancies.
