Effectiveness of palonosetron for preventing delayed chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting following moderately emetogenic chemotherapy in patients with gastrointestinal cancer.
Trial report in Supportive care in cancer : official journal of the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
purposePatients with gastrointestinal cancer who were receiving moderately emetogenic chemotherapy (MEC) were switched from granisetron, a first-generation 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 receptor antagonist, to palonosetron at our hospital. In the present study, we compared effectiveness before and after switching antiemetic treatment.
methodsAmong patients who were receiving MEC for gastrointestinal cancer, we prospectively observed 46 patients given granisetron and 46 given palonosetron. To allow adverse reactions to be graded in accordance with the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 4.0, a questionnaire designed at our hospital was used to compare the occurrence of delayed nausea and vomiting between patients who received granisetron (GRA group) and those who received palonosetron (PAL group).
resultsThe incidence of delayed nausea was significantly lower in the PAL group (8.7%, 4/46; p < 0.01) than in the GRA group (37%, 17/46). Delayed vomiting developed in five patients (10.9%) in the GRA group, but did not occur in the PAL group. On the basis of the results of multivariate analysis, young age, female gender, and the use of granisetron were significant risk factors for delayed nausea.
conclusionOur survey showed that palonosetron effectively controls delayed nausea caused by MEC for gastrointestinal cancer.
