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 AND

objectiveSequential and concurrent chemoradiotherapy were widely studied in locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the reports of induction chemotherapy followed concurrent chemoradiotherapy are rare so far. The little side effects of paclitaxel liposme may be convenient to carry out induction chemotherapy followed concurrent chemoradiotherapy. The aim of this study is to compare the effects and side effects of TP regimen (Paclitaxel liposme and cisplatin) induction chemotherapy followed concurrent chemoradiotherapy with sequential radiotherapy on locally advanced NSCLC.

methodsSixty locally advanced NSCLC patients were randomly divided into group A, induction chemotherapy followed concurrent chemoradiotherapy and group B, sequential radiotherapy group. The patients in group A received 2-3 cycles of induced chemotherapy included of Paclitaxel liposme 135 mg/m²-175 mg/m², d1 and cisplatin 70 mg/m²-80 mg/m², d2, 3 weeks repeat and after 2-3 cycles followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy. The patients in group B received chemotherapy, (as described above in group A) 4-6 cycles of chemotherapy followed one cycle of radiotherapy. The three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy at the total dose of 56 Gy-70 Gy was applied in all patients.

resultsThe response rate in group A and group B were 80.3% and 60%, respectively (P=0.042). 1-year survival rates were 71.4% and 53.2%, respectively (P=0.18). And there were no significant difference of myelosuppression, radiation esophagitis and pulmonary fibrosis between the two groups (P=0.09, P=0.147, P=0.276, respectively).

conclusionsThe recent effects of induction chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy group were better than sequential radiotherapy group on locally advanced NSCLC and there was no significant difference in side effects between the two groups.
