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

No standard adjuvant or palliative chemotherapy regimen has been internationally approved for patients with advanced gastric cancer. Adjuvant chemoradiotherapy is administered prior to surgery and is used in the Unitied States, and intensified chemotherapy is administered prior to and after surgery and is used in Europe. Limited D1 dissections are also frequently performed in the United States and Europe. In Korea, patients undergoing D2 resection appear to benefit from postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy using S-1 or capecitabine plus oxaliplatin. Fluoropyrimidine, platinum, taxane, epirubicin, and irinotecan may be employed alone or in combination as a first-line therapy in a palliative chemotherapy regimen. In Asia, an orally administered fluoropyrimidine, such as capecitabine or S-1, is favored over the continuous infusion of 5-fluorouracil because of its convenience. Trastuzumab has been integrated into the current standard chemotherapy for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-overexpressing gastric cancers. There is currently no standard regimen for secondary palliative chemotherapy. Clinical studies of several targeted therapies are ongoing.
