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

backgroundWe conducted a phase II study involving a single administration of intraperitoneal chemotherapy with paclitaxel followed by sequential systemic chemotherapy with S-1+ paclitaxel for advanced gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis.

methodsGastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis were enrolled. Paclitaxel (80 mg/m(2)) was administered intraperitoneally at staging laparoscopy. Within 7 days, patients received systemic chemotherapy with S-1 (80 mg/m(2)/day on days 1-14) plus paclitaxel (50 mg/m(2) on days 1 and 8), followed by 7-days rest. The responders to this chemotherapy underwent second-look laparoscopy, and gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection was performed in patients when the disappearance of peritoneal metastasis had been confirmed. The primary endpoint of the study was overall survival rate.

resultsThirty-five patients were enrolled. All patients were confirmed as having localized peritoneal metastasis by staging laparoscopy. Eventually, gastrectomy was performed in 22 patients. The median survival time of the total patient population and those patients in which gastrectomy was performed was 21.3 and 29.8 months, respectively. The overall response rate was 65.7 % for all patients. The frequent grade 3/4 toxic effects included neutropenia and leukopenia.

conclusionsSequential intraperitoneal and intravenous paclitaxel plus S-1 was well tolerated in gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis.
