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/

objectivesAtopic dermatitis (AD) is a prevalent chronic inflammatory skin disease, but its relationship with gastric cancer (GC) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the association between AD and GC using a nationwide Korean database.

methodsUsing the Korean National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort, we conducted a nested case-control study including 10,174 GC patients and 40,696 matched controls (1:4 by age, sex, income, and region). Overlap propensity score weighting was used to control for confounders. Adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated via logistic regression.

resultsAD was significantly associated with an increased risk of GC (adjusted OR = 1.08; 95% CI: 1.01-1.15). Subgroup analyses revealed stronger associations among individuals aged ≥ 65 years (OR = 1.12), men (OR = 1.10), rural residents (OR = 1.14), and those without comorbidities (CCI = 0, OR = 1.15). Higher risks were also observed in participants with non-allergic rhinitis (OR = 1.43) or no asthma (OR = 1.12).

conclusionsAD may be associated with an increased risk of GC in the Korean population. These findings may highlight the importance of considering dermatological conditions in the context of systemic cancer risk.
