[Oncologic pharmacotherapy of elderly patients].
Review in Der Internist, 2003. 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
Age is the major risk factor for the development of cancer. Difficulties in medical treatment of elderly patients with cancer may be due to age dependent changes in physiological organ function, which result in pharmacokinetical and pharmacodynamical changes. They also may be due to co-morbidities with the need of pharmacological therapy. The choice of adequate treatment protocols has to consider this age dependent changes in pharmacokinetics and the presence of co-morbidities. Most of the data reporting results of medical oncological treatment in patients with cancer are collected in younger patients. Therefore, the present knowledge concerning medical oncological treatment of elderly patients with cancer is still limited.
