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

Advances in molecular biology have led to the successful development of targeted monoclonal antibodies to several types of malignancies. By June 2007, nine therapeutic monoclonal antibodies had been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to treat various human cancers. In general, the adverse reactions of these agents have been milder than their cytotoxic chemotherapy counterparts, but side effects do occur. Cutaneous adverse reactions to the first of these agents were rare, and primarily limited to infusion reactions, local inflammation at injection sites, and ill-defined transient eruptions. However, the use of monoclonal antibody therapy against the epidermal growth factor receptor-1 in gastrointestinal and head and neck cancer has been frequently associated with significant skin reactions. As the use of these agents becomes more widespread, the recognition and management of these skin reactions becomes an increasingly important part of patient care.
