Data requirements of an informative, directive, and preventive mobile health application for gastric cancer.
Review in Digital health. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Gastric cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide, making early detection and prevention essential. Existing mobile health applications in this field are predominantly treatment-oriented and focused on post-diagnostic stages, leaving a significant gap in primary prevention coverage and identification of precursor conditions. The aim of this study is the systematic identification of data requirements related to precursor conditions of gastric cancer through review of clinical guidelines and evidence-based studies, in order to provide a conceptual framework for designing an informative, directive, and preventive mobile health application based on a rule-based (non-AI) approach. Method: This study is a systematic review conducted in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 protocol. A comprehensive search was performed across PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, Web of Science, and UpToDate databases from January 2005 to March 2024. Inclusion criteria encompassed authoritative clinical guidelines, consensus studies, and research articles related to diagnosis, screening, or precursor conditions of gastric cancer. Source quality was assessed using the Mixed Method Appraisal Tool. Finally, 24 sources (19 primary sources including 14 clinical guidelines, 1 consensus study, and 4 research articles; plus 5 UpToDate sources as supplementary evidence) were included in the analysis. Findings: From the systematic analysis of 19 primary sources, three main categories of precursor conditions for gastric cancer were identified: (a) baseline risk factors (family history, hereditary syndromes, previous gastric surgery), (b) diagnosed medical conditions ( Conclusion: This study presents the first comprehensive evidence-based framework for data requirements of a preventive mobile health application for gastric cancer. The proposed framework, with its focus on primary prevention and deterministic decision-making engine, offers the potential to create a conceptual infrastructure for early interventions and public health literacy enhancement. Major limitations include the conceptual nature of the design and lack of field validation. Future studies should focus on practical implementation, clinical effectiveness evaluation, user acceptance, and integration with health systems to realize the potential for reducing the burden of gastric cancer, particularly in high-prevalence regions.
