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

Gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (GC/GEJC) poses a substantial clinical burden in China. This updated guideline introduces a refined human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) classification system (high, intermediate, low, absent) to redefine patient stratification for targeted therapy. It integrates cutting-edge evidence on standardized detection-including immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, and liquid biopsy-to overcome spatial-temporal heterogeneity. Recent progress in the use of HER2-targeted agents, including monoclonal antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and bispecific antibodies, is systematically reviewed and presented to inform evidence-based clinical practice. These updates aim to optimize personalized HER2-targeted therapy and improve outcomes in GC/GEJC patients.
