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: Colorectal metastasis from gastric cancer is very rare, with existing literature limited to only a few case reports. This study was designed to investigate the clinicopathological features and prognosis of colorectal metastasis arising from gastric cancer. Methods: Patients with colorectal metastasis from gastric cancer who underwent surgical intervention at a single tertiary hospital between January 2010 and June 2023 were included, and their clinicopathological characteristics and oncologic outcomes were analyzed. Results: A total of 13 patients were identified and analyzed. The majority (92.3%) experienced metachronous metastasis, with a median disease-free interval of 34.5 months (range, 16-92 months). Surgical resection was performed in 10 patients (76.9%), while the remaining 3 (23.1%) underwent diverting enterostomy. Histopathology revealed that the metastatic colorectal tumors were poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma (76.9%) or signet ring cell carcinoma (23.1%). Among the 10 patients undergoing surgical resection, 5 (50.0%) achieved R0 resection, while the others had R2 resection. After a median follow-up of 11 months (range, 0-158 months), the 2-year overall survival (OS) was 18.5%. Postoperative chemotherapy was significantly associated with improved 2-year OS (26.7% Conclusions: Colorectal metastasis from gastric cancer demonstrated unfavorable histological features and a poor OS. Nonetheless, the pursuit of R0 resection and postoperative chemotherapy appears to hold significance, suggesting a potential avenue for improved outcomes.
