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: Skin metastasis secondary to visceral malignancy is a rare but poor prognostic occurrence. We report a rare case of gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma with skin metastases, highlighting the challenges in managing such cases. Case Presentation: A 63-year-old male diagnosed with stage IV Siewert 3 GEJ adenocarcinoma with initial extensive skin metastases. Palliative radiation and four cycles of first-line FOLFOX resulted in progression and new skin lesions. A second-line FOLFIRI and third-lines taxane regimens failed to yield clinical improvement and stop progression. His disease worsened with widespread metastases including omentum and peritoneum. He died 9 months after initial presentation due to intestinal perforation secondary to neutropenic fever. Conclusion: Skin metastases from GEJ adenocarcinoma are associated with aggressive disease chemotherapy resistance. A multidisciplinary approach, palliative care, and novel strategies are essential for managing such cases.
