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

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most refractory neoplasms to medical treatment. Until now there has been only modest improvement in the treatment of this disease. Standards of care for combined-modality treatment of resectable as well as locally advanced, unresectable disease have not been uniformly accepted to date because of an equivocal or conflicting data. The inception of gemcitabine introduced the new era in the management of metastatic pancreatic cancer, however, new therapeutic approaches still need to be defined. The article discusses the current knowledge of the biology of this lethal disease, its impact on treatment options, and explores novel therapeutic modalities that are likely to improve outcomes and survival for patients in the future.
