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

purposeSystemic chemotherapy regimens with cisplatinum have been associated with several toxicities. Thus, a loco-regional therapy approach may greatly reduce the toxicity. For this purpose, we designed this experimental study to investigate whether local chemotherapeutic injection is superior to systemic cisplatinum injection for retroperitoneal lymph nodes.

methodsA total of 48 male Wistar rats were included to the study. Rats were divided into six groups. In the first three groups, systemic applications of cisplatinum, carboplatinum and oxaliplatin were performed, respectively. In the last three, local administration of cisplatinum, carboplatinum and oxaliplatin was performed, respectively. One hour after the chemotherapeutic agent applications, retroperitoneal lymph nodes were dissected and platinum concentrations were analyzed.

resultsWhen compared with systemic route, achieving higher platinum concentrations in the local chemotherapeutic application groups was the most spectacular result of the study. Serum platinum concentrations were also lower in the local application groups than systemic ones. When we compared local and systemic applications between three chemotherapeutic agents, the most significant concentration difference was seen in carboplatinum group.

conclusionThe results of this study demonstrate that intralymphatic delivery of cisplatinum, carboplatinum and oxaliplatin leads to higher drug concentrations in the retroperitoneal lymph nodes when compared with intravenous administration.
